Revamp classic tuna mornay into tasty lunch-sized balls for school or work.
Ingredients:
  • 375.00 ml mashed potato
  • 185g can tuna in olive oil, drained, flaked
  • 165.00 ml finely grated cheddar
  • 125.00 ml frozen corn kernels
  • 40.00 ml finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • 62.50 ml plain flour
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 375.00 ml panko breadcrumbs
  • Olive oil spray
Instructions:
  • Combine potato, tuna, cheddar, corn, parsley, onion, and lemon rind in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then mix well. Shape mixture into small balls using damp hands and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Spread flour on a large plate. In a shallow bowl, mix egg with 1 tablespoon of water. On another large plate, spread breadcrumbs. Coat balls in flour, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs before placing back on the tray.
  • Generously coat with oil spray, then bake for 15 minutes or until the balls are golden and crispy. Enjoy immediately or freeze for later use (refer to notes for details).
