Description

Savory tuna cakes blended with green onions and sesame oil, served with spicy mayo for a delightful appetizer or light main course.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can of tuna, drained
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying
  • Spicy mayo for serving

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, breadcrumbs, green onions, egg, soy sauce, sesame oil, mayonnaise, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Mix well until all ingredients are combined, ensuring the mixture is moist yet firm enough to shape into patties.
  3. Shape the mixture into small patties of uniform sizes for even cooking.
  4. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the patties until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  5. Serve warm with spicy mayo on the side to enhance flavor and add a delightful kick.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, substitute breadcrumbs with gluten-free alternatives. Add spice to mayonnaise as desired.
