4 x 185g tins of tuna in brine (drained and flaked)

15 curry leaves
½ lemon juice or less
3-4 eggs (lightly beaten)
1 kg potatoes (peeled)

METHOD

Boil and mash potatoes. In meantime fry onions and curry leaves on oil till golden brown, add hot sauce and tuna and fry some more. Remove from fire, add potatoes, season with lemon juice, salt and mix well.
In two deep flat plates prepare eggs and breadcrumbs.
Create with hands small balls from tuna mixture, flatten them, deep in egg and then in breadcrumbs and fry in lots of oil on both sides till golden brown.

Drain on paper towels before serving to the plates.

Serve with some vegetables, for instance “Garlic & Lime Beans”.

Serve 5-6 people.
