Ingredients​

  • 500g brushed potatoes, peeled, coarsley chopped
  • 425g can tuna in springwater, drained
  • 1/2 cup shredded tasty cheese
  • 1 zucchini, coarsley grated
  • 2 spring onions, trimmed, thinly slicked
  • 1/3 cup continental parsley, finely chopped
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup plain flour
  • 1 cup dried breadcrumbs
  • A pinch of salt and pepper *to taste
  • Peanut oil, to shallow fry
  • Lemon wedges *to serve (optional)
  • Aioli *to serve (optional)


Method​

  1. Cook the potatoes in a medium saucepan of boiling water for 10 - 15 minutes or until very tender. Drain and mash until smooth. Season with salt and white pepper.
  2. Place the potato, tuna, cheese, zucchini, spring onions, parsley and 1 egg in a large bowl. Stir to combine. Use about 1/4 cups of the mixture and shape into a patty, around 5cm wide. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make 12 patties.
  3. Whisk the remaining 2 eggs in a bowl. Place the flour on a plate and the breadcrumbs on another plate. Working one at a time, coat the patty in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip in the beaten eggs and then coat in breadcrumbs. Place on a tray. Repeat until all patties have been crumbed.
  4. Pour enough oil to come 1 - 2cm up the side of a large non-stick frying pan. Heat over Medium heat. Cook the rissoles, in batches, for 2 - 3 minutes each side or until golden. Transfer to a tray lined with paper towel.
  5. Serve the rissoles with lemon wedges and aioli, if using.

This reminds me of ‘Frelish’ patties…
When I was growing up, mum would buy a can of Frelish….remember it was next to the tuna, and make patties using the almost same ingredients as yours….
Memories!!!!!!
