With this recipe, I was told to not deviate to the left or the right. When
I baked it rather than boiling, however, it came out fine but all
adventure is at your own risk! The last time I made it I got into such a
frenzy I just kept repeating the recipe until I'd used up all our tuna.

1. Grind or foodprocess the onion and carrot. Add tuna, sugar, matzah
meal, salt and pepper to taste. Don't overprocess.

2. Add eggs, one at a time, processing a bit in between each.

3. Pour the mixture down the middle of a piece of baking paper into a loaf
shape, fold down the top and sides, and staple the sides. (Have that
stapler ready before, because otherwise you'll be running all over the
house looking while the gloppy mixture oozes all over the paper and your
counter.)

4. Freeze the loaf at least overnight.

When you want to eat it,

5. Boil a big pot of water.
