TRACEY'S TASTY TUNA PATTIES



Tracey's Tasty Tuna Patties image

I got this recipe from my great grandmother and I have added to it throughout the years I have been making them. They are awesome for a meal and the family loves them. It's a definite comfort food that kids can eat with their fingers when cold - a great idea to get fish into a child's diet.

1 onion, diced up
2 eggs
1 garlic clove (chopped finely)

cooking oil, to cook patties
2 cups plain flour
2 cups breadcrumbs
1 egg (beaten)
1/4 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

  • Take can of corn, flaked tuna, mashed potato, cooked rice, 1 egg, garlic, salt, pepper, herbs, onion and cheese and mix them together in a large bowl.
  • Heat cooking oil in a frying pan on stove top.
  • Take mixture and roll into golf ball sized balls.

  • Take balls of mixture and drop them into the bowl of plain flour, then put them into the bowl of egg mixture, then coat them in the the bowl of breadcrumbs.
  • Do about 6-7 balls at a time. Put them in the heated oil pan, pressing them down to make into patties at the same time.

  • Take them out and place them on paper towels to drain the excess oil off of them.
  • Repeat steps until all of the mixture is used up.
  • You can serve them hot or cold with salad or with chips or even steamed vegetables.

  • Spray your frying pan with cooking spray and then put mixture balls into the pan.
  • Press them down to make them patties. cook until they are golden brown. (around 10-15 minutes each side)
  • I have cooked these patties both ways and they are so delicious.

Joann Brasington of Sumter, South Carolina reports that this tasty change-of-pace sandwich is as quick to prepare as your favorite hamburger. "My husband likes his topped with melted Swiss cheese and Dijon mustard. Salmon can be substituted for a more 'elegant' burger," she adds.

TASTY TUNA PATTIES



Tasty Tuna Patties image

If you're ever pressed for time, start with a couple cans of tuna and you'll have a delicious patty in no time that you can serve a number of different ways. Add them to buns with your favorite toppings for sandwiches, serve them alongside a fresh salad, or make smaller versions of them and serve them as appetizers with tartar sauce on the side. There are a lot of great flavor elements in these easy and versatile patties, but the quantities are small so the flavor still comes out pretty mild. If you're looking for a stronger flavor, increase quantities as you like!

Provided by Rebekah Rose Hills

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (5 ounce) cans tuna in water, drained
2 large eggs
¾ cup dry bread crumbs
1 ½ tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 ½ tablespoons finely diced celery
½ teaspoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon dried dill weed
1 tablespoon oil, divided, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine tuna, eggs, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, celery, lemon juice, seafood seasoning, mustard, pepper, and dill in a bowl; stir gently until fully and evenly combined. Shape mixture into 4 patties.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, gently lay 2 tuna patties into the skillet. Don't over crowd - only add as many patties as comfortably fit with room to flip them.
  • Cook tuna patties until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side, adjusting the heat as needed if they're cooking too quickly. Repeat with remaining patties, adding remaining oil as needed.

NEVER FAIL TUNA PATTIES (SALMON WORKS TOO)



Never Fail Tuna Patties (Salmon Works Too) image

I've made these for so long that I'm not sure of the recipe origin. They never fail, are easy to make & always good. They also work well & impress as a starter if served with crisp veggies, tartar sauce or a light mayo sauce thinned-with-milk & flavored with lime juice, dill & chives. Makes 4 patties of entree size or 6-8 of starter size. *Edited to Add* -- My spec thx to Chef JillAZ for reviewing this recipe for the Freezer Tag Game in the OAMC Forum & for the info she provided. Pls see Note #2 at the end of Prep Steps for this info. :-)

Time 21m

Yield 4 Patties, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (6 ounce) can tuna (water packed)
2 medium size eggs
2 tablespoons lime juice (preferred, but lemon ok)
1 teaspoon dill
1/4 onion, finely minced (red or white)
crushed corn flakes, as bonding ingredient
olive oil, to brown patties

Steps:

  • Combine 1st 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • Add corn flakes til you no longer see any liquid in the mixture, but more is usually better.
  • Divide into 4 equal portions on a cutting board.
  • Shape patties & flatten to 3/4 in thickness.
  • Use spatula to transfer carefully to non-stick skillet & saute over med-low heat in olive oil til golden brown & crisp on both sides.
  • Note #1: A variety of dry bonding ingredients can be used. I use crushed corn flakes or Pepperide Farm dressing mix. I don't care for the mushy texture of the end-product or the difficulty holding the patties together when potato is used.
  • Note #2: For OAMC per JillAZ ~ *To freeze* (uncooked patties) prepare recipe thru Prep Step #4. Place patties in a freezer bag w/layers of parchment paper in between. Seal, label & freeze. *To serve* ~ Thaw in fridge or microwave & cook as directed. ~~ Cooked patties can also be frozen wrapped in plastic wrap & placed in a freezer bag. Thaw in fridge or microwave & reheat on stovetop or in oven.

My grandmother and mother made these tuna patties on Fridays during Lent. I'm not the biggest fan of tuna, but it's perfect in this dish. These patties are even good cold the next day, if there are any leftovers. -Ann Marie Eberhart, Gig Harbor, Washington
