- 185 g canned tuna (6.5 ounces), well-drained
- 2 large eggs , beaten
- 20 g green onion (0.7 ounces), finely chopped
- 45 g onion (1.6 ounces), finely chopped
- 20 g red bell peppers or cayenne chili, (0.7 ounces), seeded and finely chopped
- 20 g green bell peppers or cayenne chili, (0.7 ounces), seeded and finely chopped
- 2 tsp all purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise (I used Hellmann’s real mayonnaise)
- 1 tsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- A few prinkles ground black pepper
- 1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs), or regular breadcrumbs, divided into two half cups
- Some cooking oil (I used rice bran oil)
GOCHUJANG MAYO DIPPIING SAUCE
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste)
SOY DIPPING SAUCE
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce , regular (My go to soy sauce is Kikkoman brand)
- 1 Tbsp water
- 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 2 tsp sugar
Instructions
- Make your choice(s) of dipping sauce by whisking all ingredients in a bowl(s). Set aside.
- Whisk well mayonnaise (2 Tbsp) and gochujang (1 tsp) in a small bowl. Combine canned tuna, eggs, green onion, onion, bell peppers, flour, salt, gochujang mayo sauce from earlier, and a 1/2 cup of panko breadcrumbs in a mixing bowl. Mix them well.Place the remaining panko breadcrumbs in a wide bowl (e.g. pasta bowl). Shape the mixture into small balls. I use an ice cream scoop to make even sized patties. As you make small balls of mixture, gently place them on panko and roll around to coat. Gently flatten the balls into patties with your hands. Coat with more panko and set aside. Repeat this with the remaining tuna mixture.
- Stove Top Method – Preheat a skillet over medium low heat. Once heated, add some cooking oil and spread well. Gently place the tuna patties into the skillet (without over crowding) and cover with the lid, cook for 5 mins. Add some oil over the tuna patties and flip them. Cook for a further 5 mins, covered. Flip once more and cook another 5 mins, or until golden brown.Air Fryer Method – Spray the fryer basket with cooking spray. Gently place the tuna patties in the basket (without over crowding). Set the air fryer to 180 C / 356 F and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Then flip the patties with tongs and cook for 8 to 10 minutes more, or until golden brown.Oven Method – Preheat oven at 200 C / 392 F. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper. Gently place the tuna patties and lightly spray with cooking oil. Bake for 10 mins. Remove the tray from the oven, flip the patties, and lightly spray with some cooking oil. Return to oven and bake for another 10 mins or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce (e.g. gochujang mayo dipping sauce, ketchup, soy dipping sauce, aioli, or tartar sauce).
