Tuna Patties

I overcooked cooked these a little. I added a little celery for an extra crunch and put a little cheddar on top after they were cooked. I think this recipe would be good without cooking maybe rolled in a romaine leaf.

I LOVE THESE,, ADD DIFFERENT STUFF TO THEM.. I LOVE LOVE THIS !!! I EAT THEM ALOT!!

these were sooo good!!! I did alter the recipe a little though. I used a small can of tuna and instead of a whole egg, I just used one egg white. I also added a splash of lemon juice! I also only made two patties.

Too much egg for one can of tuna. Also lacked a little flavor so I added hot sauce.

I'm from New Orleans, so here's a great way to spice this up: 1. use 1/3 cup of oatmeal flakes: Don't add them in. Every time you make a patty, dip the patty lightly in the flakes and pat it firm, then fry. 2. use 1/2 cup of diced celery: The crunch is what I miss in a lot of low-cal foods, but this will bring it back for no calorie cost 3. add 1/2 teaspoon of Zatarain's Liquid Crab Boil: This spicy liquid plus the celery (which tends to make "strings" when broken up) will give you the feeling of crab meat instead of just tuna. Alternative to #3: Add yellow mustard as your adhesive. Fish and mustard go together well. And I like to add 1/2 of chopped GREEN onion; the visual and taste effects are great. Keith in Orlando

Very confused on the amounts. Because it says ONE CAN, I used the 12 oz. bigger can, since I was supposed to get 6 patties that looked like the pic?? Then, had one serving, thinking it should be 1/6th of what I made and for 271 calories, didn't make sense. So...I looked at the tuna can (60 cals per serving - 5 servings per can) and 1 egg is 70 calories, so it stands to reason that I could have 3 and a 1/2 of those patties. They were dry. I would add another egg white next time for more protein and could spare the calories.

S'okay. It was a little dry though. Other than that it was really good with onion.

I really wanted these to be good as they have the potential for being portable without bread. Took them with me to work and was glad I had breakfast left over as I couldn't finish these! I have limited ability to smell most things, but I could sure smell these when I opened the container! Yuck! I prefer my tuna in a sandwich!

You need to season these well, a lot of herbs and lashings of lemon

I tried this twice. the first time I didn't get 6 patties and the 4 I did get were really thin. Nothing like the pic. The next time I made it I used 4 cans of tuna 1 whole egg 1 egg white the onions I add pepper and red pepper flakes for more flavor. This time I got 6 patties (I used a 1/3 c measurement per patty). I twas delicious. Entire hit with family!
