Tuna Croquettes With An Asian Twist

This is a quick and simple alternative to tuna salad. I served my croquettes on mixed baby greens with mandarin orange slices and toasted almonds, but they could also substitute for burger patties (maybe with some wasabi mayonnaise?).


Ingredients

1 can of tuna (I like to use solid white albacore)

1 egg

Italian seasoned breadcrumbs

2-3 tablespoons of finely minced onion

Sesame oil

About a handful of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

1 clove finely minced garlic

1-2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for frying


Lightly beat the egg and add all ingredients except the breadcrumbs and a few cilantro leaves (for garnish). Mix until well combined. Add in the breadcrumbs until a consistency is reached which can be formed into 2 patties. Pour about a tablespoon of oil into a skillet and put on medium-high. Wait until the oil is sizzling hot and drop the patties in, leaving them to brown for about 4 minutes on each side. Garnish with fresh cilantro, serve immediately.

I don't get the word "Mayonnaise"??
It seems to be a weird foreign language, isn't it???

Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was
wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
I'm getting tired of Wordpress because I've had issues with
hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Today, I went to the beach front with my children.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her
ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I
had to tell someone!
