Light, healthy and budget friendly, this is a fabulous lunch or light meal.

Tuna, Corn & Feta Cakes
Makes 8 small patties

You will need
2 cans shredded tuna in salt water
½ can corn kernels
1 wheel (70-80g) feta
2 large eggs
1 Tbls horse radish sauce
Black pepper
½ cup bread crumbs
Polenta
Olive oil
Additional Horseradish sauce for serving

How to make it
Drain the tuna and corn kernels.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the two eggs.
Crumble in the feta, stir in the horseradish sauce and season well with black pepper.
Add the tuna and corn to the mix and stir to combine.
Add the bread crumbs and mix well.
Sprinkle some polenta on a plate.
Scoop ¼ cups of the mixture into balls, and flatten with your hands to form patties.
Gently lay the patties on the polenta.
Once all the patties are shaped, sprinkle with some more polenta and refrigerate for 
at least an hour (no need to cover).
Heat a splash of olive oil in a large frying pan, and fry the patties for 4 minutes on 
each side (till golden brown).
Serve warm with a fresh green salad and some extra horseradish sauce.
