These savory tuna patties are a quick and delicious meal option, perfect for any time of the day.
In a mixing bowl, combine the canned tuna, egg, mayonnaise, fresh dill, black pepper, salt, and finely chopped onion.
Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid excess moisture in the mixture.
Using a fork, thoroughly mix the ingredients until well combined.
Mix gently to maintain some texture in the tuna.
Shape the mixture into patties using an ice cream scoop for uniform size, then flatten slightly.
Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mixture from sticking.
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot enough by testing with a small piece of the mixture.
Fry the patties in the hot oil for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
Serve the patties warm with your choice of sauce or as a burger filling.
Pair with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
