I came across this recipe simply to make something besides tuna salad for the many cans of tuna that we had. We were quite impressed with these patties. They were full of flvor and moist as well. I doubled the Terriyaki sauce and also added about a tablespoon on chinese plum and chili sauce which was a great addition. I also increased the garlic a bit. We will certainly make these patties again and look forward to sharing this recipe with others.

These were fantastic! I was looking for an easy way to prepare canned tuna besides using it for tuna salad and this recipe is definitely it! I used sesame-flavored chili oil for a little kick and served them with a side of steamed Asian veggies from the freezer section in the grocery store. Wrap them in a large lettuce leaf and you've got a great meal!

I just thought these were really blah. I added pepper flakes, ginger, five spice and chopped red pepper and it still did not have much flavor. I cooked it in the oven and added another egg. Maybe fried would be better.

These were fan-freaking-tastic! I didn't have sesame oil, so I used someone else's suggestion of peanut butter + oil. I also did not have teriyaki, so I used soy + ginger and honey. These were absolutely delicious and I will definitely make again. Thanks for the recipe!

This recipe was really tasty, my husband actually like it too. And easy to make. Served it up with some steamed broccoli. I used italian bread crumbs and olive oil, cause I didn't have any sesame oil. Would definitely make this again.

These were great! I'd been looking for a tuna patty recipe but most of the ones I'd found sounded bland. These weren't bland at all, especially since I added a finely chopped red chilli to the mix. I also substituted hoisin (Chinese BBQ) sauce for teriyaki sauce. The patties held together nicely. I served them like hamburgers, with tomato, lettuce and ketchup.

This looks great! I can see making it into little "tuna balls" and serving at a cocktail party with toothpicks and sauces.

I left out the teryaki sauce, because I didn't have any and they still turned out great! A very easy to make and forgiving recipe, thanks for sharing!

When I saw this, I just had to make it since I love tuna, and this was a wonderful change of pace! I also made mini patties, wrapped them in romaine lettuce and used dipping sauces as another reader suggested! Yummy!!

Everyone in family loved this recipe! I wasn't sure how my kids would like it, so I actually made a bunch of mini patties, and wrapped them in lettuce. I gave them little dippers of soy sauce and teriyaki sauce. These were soooo good! Making them into mini patties made me think they would be great as appetizers at a party.

This was really good to start with...added ginger powder, sriracha sauce, and I always make my own teriyaki sauce which really is only 1:1 soy sauce and sugar/mirin.

This was a nice, new way to utilize canned Tuna! I used tuna that was in oil (mistake that happened at the grocery store! lol) which may have actually helped it to stick together a little. I may replace the sesame oil next time just because I am not a huge fan of the taste, but I can tolerate it. I will replace it with hot oil. I used olive oil to fry these in and added some hot oil to that to give the patties a little kick to them. My husband really liked these.

I made these expecting my family to tolerate (rather than like) them, and was surprised to find that they actually ate every last bite! My daughter thought they were best eaten without any kind of bun, and my husband discovered that cold, the texture was quite unpleasant. But straight from the pan, they're a nice alternative to burgers.

Pretty tasty!... I decided to make these for dinner tonight at the last minute because our meat hadn't thawed and I had all the ingedients!.. I do usually make salmon patties the same old way, but tried this with the asian flair! I really did like the taste of the sesame oil... I was surprised after opening my cans of tuna/water... Not much fish in them... If I make again I'll add another can to stretch it further since this barely served the 4 of us... Served with rice and veggies!

These were so easy to make and came out great! I halved the recipe and was still able to make 6 decent-sized patties. I also made the following additions: toasted sesame seeds, dollop of red pepper hummus, dried basil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, sweet chili sauce, radish, roasted red pepper (omitted the ketchup). I also let them set in the fridge for 2-3 hours, which prevented them from falling apart. Next time I'll try adding some water chestnuts to give them a nice crunch.

This was excellent! I DESPISE canned tuna, but was looking for a recipe using things I had on hand and so whipped up this with things in my house...and I'm so glad I did! I followed the recipe exactly except used regular onions instead of green onions. When I make it again, I think I will try coating it with breadcrumbs instead of cornmeal, as I don't care for the gritty texture that cornmeal has. Other than that, this recipe is awesome!!!

I never have bread crumbs on hand, so in my scramble to find something absorbant, I used bonito. It was super yummy, but didn't hold together so well in the pan. We didn't care what it looked like after we tasted it! Thanks for this yummy treat!

Finally, something to do with canned tuna besides make tuna noodle casserole! This was good but turned out very salty when I made it. I will make this again and try to modify it so it won't be as salty. The patties are very dense, maybe there could be a way to make them less hockey-puck-like. Still a good recipe though.

This was a wonderful, light dinner, or would have been if I did not eat more than my share. Like other reviewers I changed the proportions a bit - more tuna and egg, less bread crumbs (I'm on a low-carb diet). Also, I added a LOT of hot sauce. I can't wait to try this again.
