Instructions
- 1
Drain the tuna thoroughly and flake it finely in a bowl with a fork. Add the eggs, breadcrumbs, onion and parsley, then season generously with the zest of half the lemon, salt and pepper.
- 2
Mix everything into a mouldable mass and let it rest for 10 minutes so the breadcrumbs soak up the moisture.
- 3
With damp hands, shape eight evenly sized patties and press them down slightly.
- 4
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the patties for three to four minutes per side until golden and crisp.
- 5
For the dip, stir the yogurt with the juice of half the lemon and a pinch of salt, then serve alongside the warm patties.
