TUNA AND CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
• Heat up a frying pan.
• When the pan is hot, spoon the mixture in heaped spoonfuls into the pan.
• Cook in batches for about 3 minutes each side, or until both sides are golden brown.
• Remove from the pan, and continue cooking in batches.

TUNA SWEETCORN BURGERS

Steps:

• Whizz the bread in a food processor to crumbs, tip into a bowl, then whizz half the sweetcorn until finely chopped. Add the chopped corn, remaining whole corn, tuna, cheese, spring onions and some seasoning into the bowl with the bread and mix well. Add the egg, bit by bit (you may not need it all), until the mixture is sticky enough to be shaped into four even-size burgers.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick pan, then cook the burgers for 5 mins on each side until golden and hot through the middle. Stuff into wholemeal buns with your favourite lettuce and a good dollop of salsa.

TUNA VEGETABLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• Combine tuna with mayonnaise, garlic, salt and pepper. Add carrot, sweet potato, zucchini, green onion, corn and flour; stir to combine. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until stiff; gently fold into the tuna mixture.
• Heat half the oil in a large, non-stick skillet set over MEDIUM HEAT. In batches, drop 1/3 cup portions of the batter into the skillet; flatten slightly with the spatula. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until golden and set. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil as needed. Hold batches in a warm oven until all the fritters are cooked.

TUNA & SWEETCORN FISH CAKES

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until really tender. Drain and allow to steam-dry in a colander. Tip into a bowl, season and mash. Stir in the mayonnaise, tuna, sweetcorn and chives or parsley. Shape into 4 cakes and chill until cold and firm.
• Dip each cake into the egg, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the breadcrumbs. Chill for 15 mins.
• Heat a little of the oil in a pan and gently fry the cakes for 2-3 mins on each side until golden. You may need to do this in batches - keep warm in a low oven. Serve with extra mayonnaise and salad leaves.
