Tuna Fishcakes

Report

With some potatoes and a couple of store cupboard essentials, you can easily make these tuna fishcakes for a simple week night meal. The easy homemade tzatziki is a must to go with these too!

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven at 190°C/170°C(fan)/375°F/Gas 5
  2. Add 600 g Potato to a pan of boiling water and then simmer for 25 minutes.
  3. Drain the potatoes and then mash with 1 tablespoon Whole milk, 30 g Mature cheddar and 1 pinch Sea salt and ground black pepper.
  4. Add 370 g Tuna, 60 g Fresh parsley and 2 tablespoon Lemon juice and mix well.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Put the fish cakes onto an oiled baking sheet. Place them into the oven for 20 minutes, turning carefully half way through.
  8. 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.
