(Sorry in advance for the lack of proper tags, I’m not sure how to add them on mobile)

So I tend to eat a can of tuna once or twice a week, usually with just a little salt, pepper and a dab of kewpie mayo and stuffed into onigiri. Are there any spices or sauces I can add to make it more interesting? Or any other easy tuna recipes I can make for one, preferably with rice? I really enjoy spicy foods and fermented/pickled things, but I’m not sure the best ways to combine that with something like tuna.

Probably not what you're looking for but also a neat camping trick so here it is.

Partially open the lid, stuck a folded paper towel inside it so it soaks up the oil and light it on fire. It'll burn for several minutes and you can use that heat to cook something else.

At the end remove the paper towel and the tuna will have been cooked nicely.

Not what I’m looking for, but still super interesting! I’m looking to camp more this year, I’ll have to try this!

There are more advanced techniques to turn a can of tuna into a stove you can look up, it's surely a nice trick to show off.
