Ingredients
Scale
4 T Oil (I use as much as needed in the pan to sautée the vegetables.)
⅔ cup onion, chopped (I cut one onion, it may be more than ⅔ cup)
1 cup carrot, chopped (I use anything from carrots, to broccoli to asparagus, to cabbage, to spinach… whatever is around and maybe more than 1 cup)
1 cup celery, chopped (or other chosen vegetable; I probably use more than 1 cup)
1 to 1.5 Tablespoons curry powder (depending on how much food is in the pan and how spicy it is)
2 T flour (all purpose flour, or I have started using garbanzo bean flour)
1 cup chicken broth (use veggie broth for vegetarian or vegan)
1.5 cups milk (use soy milk or coconut milk for vegan)
2 cans tuna (I sometimes substitute with a can of garbanzo beans, one or two packages of chopped tofu, or fresh white fish, or you could use canned chicken for the non-fish eaters)
Instructions
Sautée oil and vegetables for 5 minutes or so on high (until they are brightly colored)
Reduce heat to medium high and stir in curry powder; cook 1 minute
Sprinkle flour over all and stir in.

Bring to boil
Add tuna (or beans, tofu, fish, or chicken)
