Ingredients

• Canned tuna (in water) - 200 grams
• Katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) - 30 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Almond flour - 30 grams
• Green onion (finely chopped) - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce (low sodium) - 1 tablespoon
• Wasabi paste - 1 teaspoon
• Mayonnaise (sugar-free) - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine canned tuna, katsuobushi, egg, almond flour, chopped green onion, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the mixture into two equal patties.
3. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tuna patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
4. While the patties are cooking, mix mayonnaise and wasabi paste in a small bowl to create the wasabi mayo.
