Instructions
- Preheat your oven at 190°C/170°C(fan)/375°F/Gas 5
- Add 600 g Potato to a pan of boiling water and then simmer for 25 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and then mash with 1 tablespoon Whole milk, 30 g Mature cheddar and 1 pinch Sea salt and ground black pepper.
- Add 370 g Tuna, 60 g Fresh parsley and 2 tablespoon Lemon juice and mix well.
- Whisk 1 Egg in a bowl and set aside. Put 100 g Breadcrumbs in a separate bowl and spray a baking tray with a little oil.
- Form the mixture into fishcakes one at a time and then dip them in to the egg and then into the breadcrumbs making sure they are fully covered.
- Put the fish cakes onto an oiled baking sheet. Place them into the oven for 20 minutes, turning carefully half way through.
- Serve with tzatziki, vegetables and salad (all optional).
Notes
- Add some vegetables to these by stirring in some sweetcorn, peas or finely chopped spinach.
- For some added freshness, add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice to the mixture.
- Parsley goes really well with tuna, but you could use chives or dill instead in this recipe.
- Be careful not to overcook the mashed potatoes for this fish cake recipe, otherwise they will retain moisture.
- Make these fish cakes even crispier by using panko breadcrumbs.
- If you want to cook these quicker, and have them even crispier, then fry them. But we wanted to keep them as healthy as possible, so we baked them.
- For a little bit of crunch, add some chopped spring onions to the mixture.
