5 Ingredient Potato and Tuna Cake

Jump to recipe

Did you grow up eating Tuna Cakes? Did you like them? I did and I didn’t. There are so many foods that I disliked growing up and now I absolutely love! Canned Tuna is one of those foods. My mom used to make these cakes and I would fuss about it. I don’t know why, they are delicious! I am just happy my palate changed and because of that, I am easy on my kids too. Maybe they’ll eat everything one day just like I do. Well, not everything, I still don’t eat Papaya but that is a different story.

These cakes only have 5 ingredients. Super easy to make and very delicious! I have learned a few tricks here and there that would help you make the perfect Potato and Tune cake.

N.1 Is to boil the potato whole. That way it will absorb less water and your cake won’t fall apart.

N2. Mix everything with a fork. If you compress or overwork the mix with your hands you might end up with a dense cake.

N3. Temperature. You need to preheat your skillet on low-medium heat for five minutes before you start to cook the cakes. This is going to give them an even browning and will also cook them through without burning the outside.

These steps have helped me to achieve the perfect Potato and Tuna Cake. These are so delicious and comforting.

I served my Potato and Tuna Cakes with a side of greens lightly dress with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Perfect lunch!

Hello, my name is Marisol Chancellor. I was born and raised in Monterrey Mexico. I’ve been living in Texas for 12 years and even when I love barbeque, fruit cobblers and sweet tea, there’s something that has the power of transporting me right back to my mom’s kitchen and gives me a little piece of home, cooking. I grew up in the kitchen and for me, memories are always linked to food, and behind the food, well, there’s always a story that comes along. So, please let me share with you my love for cooking and while we are at it, let’s share some memories, because let’s be honest, we are also hungry for nostalgia.
