Method:

1. Season the tuna sparingly with chili powder. Cover and leave in a cool place for 1 hour.

2. Meanwhile, heat a dry heavy-based flameproof earthenware dish or frying pan. Add the coriander, cumin and ginger and season with salt and cayenne pepper, then dry-fry over a low heat for 30 seconds.

3. Add the oil to the pan and heat for 30 seconds, then add the onions and garlic. Cover and cook gently for about 45 minutes until the onions are golden and very soft.

4. Add the stock to the pan and put the fish on the onions, bring to simmering point and cook gently until the fish flakes when tested with a fork.

5. Transfer the fish to a warmed serving dish with a slotted spoon. Boil the mixture in the pan until most of the liquid has evaporated, then add to the fish on the dish and serve.
