Fish Friday Tuna Burgers

Directions

Ingredients :

1 (7 ounce) pouch tuna in water

drained and juice reserved

3 tablespoons finely chopped onion

3 tablespoons finely chopped celery with leaves

1 large egg

¼ cup dry bread crumbs

2 slices day-old bread

cubed

1 pinch garlic powder

or to taste

1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

3 tablespoons olive oil

Methods :

Mix drained tuna, onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs, bread cubes, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. If mixture is too dry to hold together, stir in reserved tuna juice, 1 teaspoon at a time. Divide mixture in fourths and shape each portion into a patty.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and pan-fry the patties until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Drain patties on paper towels.
