Delicious tuna patties, perfect for kids' after school snack.
Ingredients:
  • 2 golden Delight potatoes, peeled, coarsely chopped
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) milk
  • 250g frozen spinach, thawed, excess liquid removed
  • 185g can tuna in springwater, drained, flaked
  • 25g (1/4 cup) coarsely grated cheddar
  • 1 shallot, trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 3 eggs
  • Plain flour, to dust
  • 180g (2 cups) dried multigrain breadcrumbs
  • Light olive oil spray
  • Tomato sauce, to serve
Instructions:
  • 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. 2. Boil the potato in salted water for 12 minutes until tender. Drain and return to the pan. 3. Add 1 tablespoon of milk and mash until smooth using a potato masher. 4. Transfer the mashed potato to a large bowl and let it cool for 5 minutes before using.
  • Combine spinach, tuna, cheddar, shallot, lemon rind, 1 egg, salt, and pepper with the potato mixture, stirring well.
  • Combine the remaining milk and eggs in a bowl, whisking until smooth. Spread the flour and breadcrumbs out on separate plates. Form 2 tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture into a pattie, and continue until you have 16 patties. Coat each pattie in flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally in breadcrumbs. Place the coated patties on the prepared tray and repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
  • Coat patties with a light mist of oil. Roast until they are beautifully golden, about 20 minutes. Enjoy the patties with a side of flavorful tomato sauce.
