Potato & Corn Tuna Cakes

If you’re looking for a delicious snack that satisfies, you can’t go past these scrumptious potato and corn tuna cakes. These are a favourite in my house and a really easy dinner when you’re on the go. It can also be served as a delicious entrée but beware they are very filling! The timely part is boiling and mashing the potatoes but it can be left out if you are time crunched. However my tip would be to not leave out the coriander because the difference is definitely noticeable. It provides a real freshness and pop of colour to the entire dish.
