Ingredients
- 3 cans of Tuna
- 2 Sweet Potato (Approximately 2 Cups Chopped)
- 1 Red Pepper (Finely Diced)
- 1 Yellow Onion (Finely Diced)
- 1 Garlic Clove (Minced)
- 1/4 cup Chopped Fresh Chives
- 1/2 Lime (Juice)
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 tbsp Salt (I used course salt, so useless if you’re using fine table salt)
- 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Paprika
Instructions
- Dice the sweet potato into smallish cubes and boil for 10 minutes in salted water. They should be fork-tender.
- While the sweet potato boils, sauté the diced red pepper and onion in a little bit of oil until the onion is soft.
- Now mix everything together in a mixing bowl until well combined.
- Form the mixture into fish cakes. I used 1/4 cup per cake and this yielded 12 cakes.
- Heat up oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot – carefully place the fish cakes in the pan and allow them to get a good sear on each side. Let them sit for at least 3 minutes per side.
