      This was a very good recipe but I think it was overpowered by the curry. The next time I make I will definitely cut the curry in half. I chose to bake mine rather than fry just to cut down on fat otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. I served mine on rolls with tarter sauce, watercress, red onion and tomato and everyone enjoyed them.

      My husband was not over excited by the thought of this recipe...but he loved them. They were spicy and crispy on the outside. Served with spicy tartar sauce.

      Very good! but the heat is a bit overpowering- maybe half the cayenne next time. This recipe makes a LOT. Also might be useful to use solid tuna, as the texture will be less mushy. Thanks for sharing!

      Very good! Because of lack of some things I used Mayonnaise, and cracker crumbs instead of bread crumbs and coated in Panko before frying. Delicious!

      I love this recipe I did however tweak it a lil. Instead of doing the miracle whip used mayo. Omitted the tabasco and the red curry and used fresh jalapenos instead. And i rolled the patties in more bread crumbs since I had corn starch not meal and they came out delicious. my husband said that this is a keeper.

      I made this on friday and it was terrific. One of the reviehe patties are so juicy and flavorful, they dont need a sauce on top, and they were right. I did however enjoy this with a little egglplant salad (baba ganoush). A couple modifications I made: I used matzoh meal instead of cornmeal, regular mustard instead of dijon, and mayo - not Miracle Whip. I also used paprika instead of the cayenne, and skipped the Old Bay sauce (never heard of it..but used crushed bay leaves instead...bad idea!) and skipped the tabasco sauce cuz we didnt have any. They still turned out good. My one caution is they are very greasy to make and need a lot of oil.

      This was an interesting recipe. I did cut the "hot" spices by half as my tolerance is low for heat! I loved the blending of flavors and never would have thought to use mustard and M. Whip in the patties. My old way seems a bit dull so this is my new adopted way now. Thanks for a great recipe. I didn't think they needed any sauce, they were good just plain, as my kids say.

      I loved the idea of this recipe - a jazzed up tuna cake! My fault though, the spicy was too spicy! I'm going to try this again, cutting out the cayenne. I will rerate on round #2.

      Woooo! Tuna cakes with KICK! My husband and I LOVED these. :) I left out the tabasco sauce, and it still had plenty of bite in it. I had to make a few alterations due to what I had on hand. I used regular garlic, mayo instead of miracle whip, regualar breadcrumbs, and regular curry powder. However, we're really looking forward to making these with the exact ingredients next time. Thanks for posting this great recipe!!

      YUUUMMMMMY! These were wonderful. Perfect spice combo. I did omit the cayenne pepper because I was serving it to my kids, but kept the hot sauce. (I made little tuna balls for them and they loved them!) They tasted just like some I had in a restaurant in Charleston, SC years ago.

      I found these to be rather dry.

      This recipe has delightful flavor to what could be boring tuna cakes. The curry/old bay combination really made the difference and made these tuna cakes stand out. I did make some modifications to the recipe due to dietary reasons, using egg substitute and omitting all salt (using a sodium free old bay) with good results. I also chose to bake them, spraying with a bit of cooking spray to avoid frying and your cornmeal/flour coating did a great job of giving them a bit of a crunch. Thank you Donna for sharing the recipe.

      My kind of spicing - excellent flavor - I cut the recipe back to 1 tin of tuna and made 4 fish cakes. Served with a bit of Tartare Sauce, Fresh real baby carrots, new baby potatoes with butter and steamed fresh green beans, steamed. Very economical recipe if you have all the spices etc on hand - I do. Love the cornmeal/flour coating. Thanks Donna for a keeper

      This was delicious! I could eat it uncooked, but followed the recipe and enjoyed it that way too. I actually served this with barbeque sauce. I'm sure any sauce would be good. Thanks for a nice change for dinner!
