WHANONA'S TUNA FRITTERS



Whanona's Tuna Fritters image

This is my Great Grandma Whanona's recipe (Whanona Parrett). Except I added the corn. She made this for breakfast for us, me and my cousin's loved this when visiting grandma. However we make them for any meal also. Now my 3 boys love them too! You can have fun and put in other items, ( once I used salmon and added Pre-steamed chopped broccoli, which was very good too)

dill weed (I love lots, sprinkle till you are happy)
salt & pepper

Tips:

  • Choose the right tuna: Canned tuna in water or olive oil is the best choice for fritters. Avoid tuna packed in brine or oil, as it will make the fritters greasy.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables like onions, carrots, and bell peppers add flavor and texture to the fritters. Avoid using frozen or canned vegetables.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the fritters tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Cook the fritters over medium heat: Cooking the fritters over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the fritters with your favorite dipping sauce: Tartar sauce, ketchup, or ranch dressing are all great options.

Conclusion:

Tuna vegetable fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a party. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a tasty and satisfying dish that everyone will enjoy.
