Ingredients

  • 2 cans tuna in water
  • 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/3 cup green onions chopped
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • cooking oil

Instructions

  • Drain tuna and add to bowl with bread crumbs and green onions.  Stir well.
  • Add milk and continue stirring.
  • Form eight equal-sized patties.
  • Heat oil in skillet.  When hot, add patties and cook for 3-4 minutes, flip and cook another 3-4 minutes.

Notes

Tip 1

Make sure to cook these until they are nice and brown. If you flip them too early, there is a possibility of them falling apart. You need that nice brown crust on there.

Tip 2

These taste fantastic, but I love to add a little sauce to them. The white sauce that you see in the photos is just sour cream and dill mixed together with a bit of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice. You really can't mess it up. Taste it as you go.
