Lemon & pepper-crusted tuna fish cakes with Brussels slaw

These fishcakes take inspiration from Maryland crab cakes which are bound together with mayonnaise. Ours use 0% fat yogurt instead, as a healthier alternative

Ingredients

  • 2 x 160g cans Essential Tuna Chunks In Spring Water, drained
  • 80g Cooks’ Ingredients Lemon & Pepper Crust
  • 25g pack flat leaf parsley, most finely chopped, a few whole leaves to serve
  • 1 Essential Lemon, ½ for squeezing, ½ cut into wedges
  • 4 tbsp 0% fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 Essential Free Range White Eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp Essential Creamed Horseradish Sauce
  • 1 small Essential Carrot, peeled and finely shredded
  • 80g Essential Radishes (about 5 or 6), finely sliced
  • 100g pack trimmed baby Brussels sprouts, finely shredded
  • 2 tbsp Essential Olive Oil

Method

  1. Put the tuna in a bowl and mash with the back of a fork. Tip in ½ the lemon and pepper crust, the chopped parsley, a good squeeze of lemon juice, 2 tbsp yogurt and the eggs. Season and stir together until well combined. Split the mixture into 4 and shape into patties. Pour the remaining crust onto a plate and coat the fish cakes with it, then chill in the fridge to firm up.

  2. Meanwhile, make the slaw. Put the remaining 2 tbsp yogurt in a large bowl and add the horseradish and remaining lemon juice. Season and stir to combine. Add the carrot, radishes and sprouts, then mix to coat.

  3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a nonstick frying pan and add the fish cakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and piping hot throughout, adding a little more oil if needed. Serve with the slaw, lemon wedges and a scattering of the remaining parsley leaves.
