What to do with a Can of Tuna...

Here is a nice little pan fried tuna patty I made tonight. While writing the title of this recipe it got me humming the old song - "What to do with a drunken sailor.....So what to do with a can of tuna....This recipe is damn tasty as the tarragon is really nice. There is no breading in it as it's only a month until summer and it's time for something low carb. It's simple to make and divine to eat. Simple add two cans of water-packed tuna to a bowl and add, one slice of lemon juice, one egg, 1 tbsp. of tarragon, 1/4 cup of crumbled up feta cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. It will be slightly moist, but you could add some breadcrumbs if you like, but I haven't tried breadcrumbs, so I'm not sure if it would take away the unique flavour. Then in a frying pan over high heat, melt a tbsp. of butter. Take a handful of the tuna mixture and squeeze out excess juice or moisture. Form a little patty (they may be easily breakable because they aren't loaded with gluten) and put into pan right away. Once it's nice and toasty on the one side having formed a crust, flip over and do the same on the other side. Only cook these patties for a couple of minutes so it doesn't get too dried out. I actually topped mine with a curry mayo which was tasty too.
