TUNA AND POTATO CAKES
Ingredients
3 large potatoes
2 cans chunk tuna in water, drained
2-3 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp pepper sauce
½ lime, juiced
2 cups flour for coating
3 – 4 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and Black Pepper
Directions
- Peel potatoes and cut into chunks. Place in a pot of water and bring to a boil, cooking just until the potatoes are tender. Drain well. Let cool slightly.
- Mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Add the tuna, egg, chives, salt, black pepper and pepper sauce. Mix well just to combine.
- Shape the mixture into patties and flatten each cake to about ½ inch thickness. At this point the cakes can be refrigerated.
- Heat oil in a sauté pan. Coat cakes with flour, dusting off excess and carefully add cakes and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side or until cakes are golden brown.
- Drain on a paper towel and serve with a creamy dressing.
