Tuna, Bacon and Sweetcorn Fishcakes
Hearty and filling, quick and easy.
- 1 tin(s) John West Tuna Chunks in Sunflower Oil, drained
- 450 g potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 rashers streaky bacon, chopped
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 55 g frozen sweetcorn
- a little flour for dusting
- sunflower oil for frying
- salt and pepper
Boil the potatoes in lightly salted water for 7-10 minutes or until tender. Drain them and mash, season and leave to cool.
While you cook the spuds, heat a frying pan, add the bacon and cook over a medium heat for 2 or 3 minutes.
Add the onion and continue to cook until the onion is soft and golden the bacon is just crisping.
Add the sweetcorn, stir over the heat for a couple of minutes then leave it to cool.
In a bowl, mix the cooled mash and bacon mixtures together, then carefully add the John West Tuna. I like to keep it in nice big chunks.
Season to taste, then shape the mixture into 4 cakes, flatten so that they are no more than 3cm thick. Cover and chill until required.
Lightly dust your cakes with flour and pan-fry in a little sunflower oil for 3 or 4 minutes. Don’t turn them too often as they can fall to bits - they are still yummy even if they do though!
