Making Asian-Style Tuna Cakes with Spicy Mayo is simple if you follow these clear steps:

Prepare Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients listed in the ingredient section.

2. Mix Tuna Base: In a large bowl, combine the drained tuna, panko breadcrumbs, green onions, red bell pepper, minced garlic, grated ginger, egg, soy sauce, cilantro (if using), sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

3. Form Patties: Using your hands, shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Set aside.

4. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 cup of vegetable oil over medium heat.

5. Cook Patties: Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

6. Drain Excess Oil: Remove the cakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

7. Prepare Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth.

8. Serve: Enjoy the tuna cakes hot, drizzled or served with spicy mayo on the side. These steps will ensure that your Asian-Style Tuna Cakes come out perfectly crispy and full of flavor!
