Ingredients
Ingredients

Preparation
Remove the oil or brine from the can of fish. Rinse once and drain the water. Leave the fish for a few minutes in the colander so that all the water will drip from the fish. Massage the fish with a fork or with your hand to break the fish into small pieces.
Mix salt, pepper, turmeric, chili powder with the fish. Set it aside for 5 minutes for the fish to marinate.
Drain the brine from the mushroom and corn cans. Rinse once and drain the water fully. Cut into bite size pieces.
Boil the spaghetti according to the instructions on the packet. I added 1 tea spoon salt and 1 tablespoon of oil to the water before boiling. Adding oil will prevent the strands from sticking to each other. When the water comes to the boil add the spaghetti and stir once to prevent the strands from sticking to each other. I boiled it for about 45 minutes. Do not cover tightly. You should stop boiling before the spaghetti becomes very soft. It should be firm (al dente)  but not hard. Drain and set aside.
