Fried tuna and potato cakes, something different to do with tuna. Ease up on the seasonings a little if you wish and use fresh garlic if you don't have the powder. Serve with salsa or mayonnaise.

- Peel and quarter the potato and place into a small pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two, then mash the potato with a potato masher or fork in a large bowl.
- Mix the tuna, egg, onion, Dijon mustard, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper and salt and pepper into the mashed potato until well-blended. Divide the tuna mixture into 8 equal portions and shape into patties.
- Heat the olive oil in a frypan over medium heat. Pan fry the tuna patties until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes on each side.
