( Note: I used one tin of 170g canned Tuna fish. If you are using canned fish, drain the salt water from it as much as possible and keep the fish ready. If you are using regular fish, sprinkle little water and boil the fish with ginger and garlic, little chilli powder and turmeric powder. Remove the bones from the fish and then mince the fish. Also vary the amount of chilli as per your spice level)

Finely chop onion and green chilli and keep it ready. Boil the potato, mash it and keep it ready. Heat oil in a pan and add chopped onion. Saute it till it becomes soft
