- 3 cloves of garlic
- 2 shallots
- 5 bird’s eye chilies

Prepare the Tuna Filling: Begin by finely chopping or blending the tuna fillets until they reach a smooth consistency. Season the mixture with salt and white pepper, then add a small amount of cornstarch to bind everything together. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
