Crispy Tuna Cakes

But Josh? Meat? And fried? Yes!! These are by far the best tuna cakes I have ever had! And a very surprising ingredient turns into a very cheese like texture. Potato! Kids and adults alike will love these crispy dinner treats! Makes 8 cakes.

Ingredients:

1/2 Can New Potatoes (Cubed)
1 Can Tuna (Drained)
1 Cup Bread Crumbs
3/4 TSP Garlic Powder
1/2 TSP Parsley Flakes
1/8 TSP Ground Red Pepper
2 TSP Mustard
1 1/2 TSP Olive Oil



Boil cubed potatoes until soft, then mash leaving very small chunks. Heat large skillet with 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat. Empty drained tuna into medium bowl, flake with fork. Combine mashed potatoes, 3/4 cup of bread crumbs and all other ingredients into tuna and stir with fork until evenly combined. Form patties out of approx. 1/4 cup of mixture. Pour remaining 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs on plate. Lay patties flat onto breadcrumbs lightly coating each side. Drop into oil. Flip once 3-4 min in until crispy and brown on both sides. Let stand on newspaper or paper towels for 5 minutes before serving.

Read up. Eat up. Enjoy!
