- 350 grams (12 1/3 ounces) canned tuna
- 1 large onion
- Oregano (to taste)
- 250 grams (1 3/4 cups) all-purpose flour
- 4 cloves of garlic

Then, add the tuna, stir and simmer about 4 to 5 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat, sprinkle with chopped parsley and let cool.

Is there a name for this other than “tuna cake”? I’m hoping to hire someone to make a variation for a relative and it would be helpful to include in the request.
Hi Sarah,
I really don’t know if it has another name. We are sorry that we can not help you.
