Sweet potato and tuna patties are a nutritious and delicious meal option that combines the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes with the savory flavor of tuna. These patties are easy to make and perfect for a quick lunch, dinner, or even a snack. They are also a great way to use up pantry staples like canned tuna and bread crumbs while incorporating fresh herbs for added flavor.
- Make sure the sweet potato is fully cooked and mashed smoothly to ensure the patties hold together well.
- Drain the canned tuna thoroughly to prevent excess moisture in the patties.
- For extra flavor, consider adding finely chopped onions or garlic to the mixture.
- Use a non-stick skillet to minimize the amount of oil needed and to prevent the patties from sticking.
- If the mixture is too wet, add more bread crumbs gradually until the desired consistency is reached.
- Try serving the patties with a simple side salad, on a bun as a burger, or with a dipping sauce like tartar or lemon aioli.
