Crispy Tuna, Sweet Potato & Corn Balls

Method

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan forced)
  2. Peel and chop the sweet potato into chunks. Boil in some slightly salted boiling water for about 15 minutes until tender, then drain and mash.
  3. Drain the tuna and sweetcorn and put them in a bowl along with the warm, mashed sweet potato. Season with some black pepper and mix well.
  4. Put the breadcrumbs in one bowl and the flour in another.
  5. Whisk the eggs in a bowl.
  6. With a dessert spoon, divide the tuna mixture into 12 balls. Dip them in the flour first, then the egg and then the breadcrumbs.
  7. Fry them in batches in some oil until golden all over. Transfer to the oven to keep warm
