  2. Add eggs and mix well
  3. Stir in tuna flakes followed by seasoned flour.
  4. Shape them into patty and shallow fry or bake on a greased baking sheet in an oven.
  5. If frying, heat small oil at the bottom of the pan, make sure it is hot then fry on one side, when it is brown, you turn the other side.
