In my kitchen!

I found a near-expired can of tuna, and decided to turn it into a filling side dish. My kids love this! Be careful when cooking, since the oil might spatter due to the oil residue from tuna can and from the potato.

Steps

1

Combine mashed potatoes with tuna, bread crumbs, parmesan, maizena, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth. You might want to add a bit of breadcrumbs if it's too watery, or a bit of milk if the mixture is too solid.
2

Wash and dry your hands. Add a bit of oil to your hand, and form patties.
3

Heat about 1 tbsp of oil in a pan. When it is hot, put patties inside. Cook using low heat. Flip the patties carefully. They will be golden brown when done, but still a bit soft.
