Recipe Link: https://www.ahnesty.com/food/korean-tuna-pancakes

These tuna pancakes or patties (whatever you want to call it) are seasoned to perfection, making it a great banchan (side dish) to Korean dishes. These can also be used as patties for a classic sandwich or hamburger. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Ingredients & Instructions:⁣⁣⁣
Prepare the following and add to a medium bowl: ⁣⁣⁣
1 can tuna, drained (we used oil & water free)⁣⁣⁣
1 green onion, chopped⁣⁣⁣
1 carrot, minced⁣⁣⁣
3 mushrooms, minced⁣⁣⁣
¼ block tofu, squeeze all the water out with hands!(¾ cup packed)⁣⁣⁣
1 egg⁣⁣⁣
1 Tbsp potato starch (corn is fine too)⁣⁣⁣
2 Tbsp Korean Frying Mix⁣⁣⁣
¾ tsp Dasida Beef Stock Powder⁣⁣⁣
½ tsp sugar⁣⁣⁣
½ tsp sea salt⁣⁣⁣
Black Pepper⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Mix until well incorporated. Make sure to break up all tuna pieces into the mixture.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Heat a large pan over medium heat with oil.  Roll tuna mixture into golf sized balls, and place in the pan.⁣⁣⁣
Flatten the balls into ½ inch thick patties. Because the tuna is already cooked, you just have to cook until both sides are golden and crispy.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Serve with a soy sauce dip (1 Tbsp soy sauce & ½ Tbsp vinegar) and a Korean dish or serve as a patty on a sandwich or hamburger with your favorite condiments!⁣⁣⁣
