Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can of tuna
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
- 1/4 cup bell pepper (chopped)
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon ginger (grated)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the tuna, breadcrumbs, green onions, bell pepper, egg, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Once everything is mixed, take a handful of the mixture and form it into patties.
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat, ensuring it’s hot enough to give those patties a lovely golden sheen.
- Carefully place the patties into the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce or on a bun as desired.
Notes
For an extra crunch, try adding finely chopped nuts to the mixture. If the mix feels too wet, add more breadcrumbs until it holds together.
