How to Make Whanona's Tuna Fritters

  1. In a large bowl, combine the tuna, corn, flour, egg, milk, onion, and spices. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
  2. Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Once the oil is hot (a drop of batter should sizzle immediately), drop spoonfuls of the fritter batter into the skillet.
  4. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan; work in batches if needed.
  5. Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! These fritters are fantastic on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
