To a wide, high rimmed pan set over medium high heat, add 1/4 cup oil, moroccan paprika, turmeric, pepper, salt, and cumin. Throw in the garlic cloves(if the cloves are very large slice them in half). Sauté until fragrant, mixing with a wooden spoon, for 1-2 minutes.
Add in the tomato and pepper, and cook for 10-15 minutes, until it has thickened and looks like sauce.
Rinse the fish.
Push aside the vegetable and gently add the tuna fillets to the pan. Spoon over some of the sauce to coat the fish, cover with a lid, lower the heat to medium, and let it cook for 15 minutes, until the fish is almost cooked through.
