Fishcakes - with a twist!

More goodies from my lovely friend Bea at Portomuinos, this time I'm trying their natural seaweed tartar.

It looks a little like lumpy pesto, but a less vibrant green. It's actually seaweed and gerkins, and tastes great, I had to stop myself just eating it with a teaspoon, so there'd be enough for my recipe! The gerkins are a great addition, just enough to give it a gentle kick, but not too much, so they don't overpower the seaweed.

And some great news, you can now buy some Porto Muinos products in the UK

Here is what I made:

Ingredients (serves 4)
450g ready made mashed potato
450g tuna (from tins), drained
Jar of seaweed tartar
1 tbsp lemon juice
½ bunch coriander, chopped
2 eggs
Plain flour
100g breadcrumbs (3-4 slices of bread

1. Beat the eggs in a bowl and put the flour and breadcrumbs on separate plates
2. Put the potato, tuna, peas, lemon juice and coriander in a bowl and mix thoroughly
3. Divide into 4 or 8 patties, then dust each with flour, then dip into the egg and finally coat with breadcrumbs - you may need to reshape them at the end of this process, I certainly needed to!
