Tuna and Corn Fritters
"These little fritters - or 'tuna pancakes' as my 5 year old calls them, are fast and nutricious - and loved by big and little people alike - especially my very fussy 5 year old. You can even can add sweet chilli sauce and some fresh coriander to give them an Asian flavour."

Really nice. Doubled up the recipe to make about 8 patties in the end and put some coriander instead of parsley. I agree that you want to keep them on one side for a bit longer to let them keep consistency, also a good "flipper" to turn them quick is a good idea :-) -
2-3 tablespoons fresh corn for 12 fritters? What in the world. -
I thoroughly enjoyed this recipe! I doubled the portions and added bread crumbs after seeing the comments and witnessing for myself that they came apart easily!

DH liked these. I had a really problem getting them to hold together and needed to cook them longer. They were very simple to mix up, great for a quick meal. Thanks for posting the recipe. -
Absolutely loved the flavor (and health) of these! I had a bit of trouble getting my first batch to stay in patty form...got more of a mush. For the second batch, I cooked them a bit longer (more like 5min per side) and they held together a bit better. Next time I might add a bit more flour though. Try this! It's awesome! Note: for a doubled recipe 1can tuna and 2/3 can corn

I love entertaining at home and having friends and family over for a meal is one of my favourite ways to catch up. I'm a working mother of one, so I'm often looking for things that taste and look fantastic - but are simple to prepare. Gone are the days when I'd spend all day assembling a meal for the night's dinner party! My husband loves to eat - and occassionally bbqs - and I'm hoping that one day the palate of my discerning 6 yr old daughter will enjoy both the outputs and endeavours of my kitchen.
I'm always to looking for new ideas and inspirations. I also love to pass on my successful recipes to others. I frequently create or adapt dishes that I've seen, read or tasted someweere. I'm also conscious of my family's health, so am always keen to explore how I can reduce the fat content but keep things tasting delicious.
