Easy Fish... good for dinner or appetizer

Fish Cakes

Prep Time:5 min
Total Time:1 hr 11 min
Makes:6 servings, 2 fish cakes each (I usually make 15-17 patties)


Take 1 pkg. (6 oz.) dry STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Cornbread (or chicken works), 3/4 cup water and 1/3 cup KRAFT Mayo Real Mayonnaise and add the following:


1 can (60z) tuna, drained, flaked
1 pouch flavored tuna (I like lemon pepper or herb and garlic)
Add a tablespoon or so of flour for stability
1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese (or other cheese)
Shredded or minced carrots

Could also use: Relish, chopped green peppers, green onions, frozen sweet corn, chopped celery, shredded zucchini

Shape into 12 patties, using about 1/3 cup of the stuffing mixture for each patty; cover. Refrigerate 1 hour.

HEAT large nonstick skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium heat. Add patties to skillet in batches.

COOK 6 min. or until golden brown on both sides, turning carefully after 3 min.

Make Ahead
Patties can be shaped ahead of time. Cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours before cooking as directed.


Serve with tartar sauce, cocktail sauce or maybe a blue cheese dressing. These would also be great with a simple coleslaw.
