Preparación :
- Sprinkle breadcrumbs on cookie sheet for fast cleanup. Set aside.
- Place tuna in bowl. Cut potato into very small pieces (or crush with the back of a fork) and add to tuna.
- Add onions, egg, salt and pepper, and blend thoroughly (you may want to use your hands to mix).
- With your hands, scoop about 2 1⁄2 tablespoons (32 g) of the mixture, and shape into a tight ball. Roll ball in breadcrumbs on cookie sheet. Flatten ball into a party by pressing with the heel of your hand and then gently press patty edges to make a secure, firm, round edge. Press in additional breadcrumbs so patty is thoroughly covered. Place patties around edges of cookie sheet in preparation of frying.
- Place culinary basket in roaster and add oil in roaster (the oil will just cover the woven basket portion up to the solid frame of the basket). Set temperature on medium heat. Heat oil to 350°F/175°C - 375°F/190°C; use a thermometer to test temperature before starting to cook. Do not overheat or under-heat oil.
- Using a slotted spoon, gently place 3 patties, one at a time, into the hot oil, Oil will burst into churning bubbles. Cook until golden brown, using slotted spoon to turn the patties over to cook both sides, approximately 50 seconds total.
- Remove patties with slotted spoon and place on paper towels to capture excess oil.
- Repeat until all patties are cooked. Serve with your favorite sauce.

- Substitute canned chicken or salmon for tuna.
- For a change, add additional herbs or spices to mixture prior to cooking, such as Old Bay seasoning, diced bell peppers, or crushed red pepper.
