How do you make the patties?
There are a few ways to make tuna patties. One is to mix together 1 cup of bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until the mixture is well combined. Then scoop out 1-inch circles from the mixture and press them into the shape of patties. Place the patties on a lightly floured surface and repeat until all the mixture is used up. In a separate bowl, mix together 2/3 cup of milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined. Dip each tuna patty into the milk mixture and then coat in the bread crumbs. Place the tuna patties on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy. Serve immediately

What to serve them with?
If you’re looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, tuna patties are a great option. They’re simple to make, and can be served with a variety of toppings.
To make the patties, you’ll need some bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Once combined, mix in enough water to form a wet paste. The mixture should be slightly moist but not wet enough to stick to your hands.
Next, take half of the tuna loin and pulse it in a food processor until minced. Add the minced tuna to the bread crumb mixture and mix well. Using your hands, shape the mixture into small balls (about ¾-inch diameter).
In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil or cooking spray and cook the patties for 3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
