Crab cakes?? Who needs them…
Low-cost tuna makes for a fantastic family weeknight meal! Plus it is affordable. I personally lay on a bed of lettuce, but you could just add some cut veggies to dip in that amazing sriracha aioli!!
This is also a very great option to make ahead for lunches in the week!
Enjoy!
Ingredients:
Tuna Cakes:
3 cans of tuna, drained
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/2 cup bread crumbs, I use gluten-free
1 tbsp honey mustard
1/4 cup fresh grated parmesan
1 egg
whole lemon, squeezed for juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 cup greek yogurt
2 tbsp mayo
1/8 tsp cayenne
1 cup-ish of avocado oil for frying
Sriracha Sauce:
1 cup mayo
2 tbsp sriracha sauce
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
Mix and drizzle!! Keeps for a week in the frig!
Putting Together:
Combine all ingredients together and MIX. Let it sit while you start the oil or air fryer
Add the oil to just cover the bottom of the pan. Place on medium heat till for about 5-10 to a place that you see small bubbles on the pan.
After the oil is started and almost to temp, start making pattis. This will make 7-8 pattis. or you can make larger and less.
I place 3-4 patties in the oil and cook about 5-8 minutes on each side. They should be golden brown. One flip once as that can be delicate when flipping.
Serve on a bed of lettuce and drizzle with the sriracha aoili. Dinner is served,or Lunch!!
