The Greek flavors in these Greek Tuna Cakes are pungent enough to overshadow the tuna. Greek food is one of my favorite categories.

Ingredients
2 (7-ounce) cans of tuna
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg, beaten
½ cup crumbled feta
3 tablespoons flax meal
2 tablespoons green onions, minced
1 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped, or 1 tsp dried
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon lemon zest
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
Extra feta and sliced green onions for serving
Directions
- Add all ingredients to a medium bowl. Mix with a fork. Form into discs with your hands. They should be about 2 ½ inches in diameter and almost 1 inch thick.
- Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Sauté the tuna cakes for about 5-6 minutes.
- Turn over and cook an additional 3 minutes on the second side.
- Serve on a bed of spinach or other greens, topped with a dollop of homemade mayonnaise, and a sprinkle of feta cheese and sliced green onions.
Notes
- You will use 4 tablespoons oil for frying, but the tuna cakes will only absorb about half that amount. Nutrition info reflects that.
