Kids always love burgers and these simple tuna burgers are a nice alternative to minced beef.

Preparation

  1. Cut the potatoes into chunks, then boil in lightly salted water for 10 -12 minutes until tender. Drain and mash with the mayonnaise.

  3. Press each patty lightly on each side into the breadcrumbs. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Lightly spray with spray oil and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden, turning halfway through. Serve 2 burgers per portion with half a tomato.
