Protein Tuna Balls

Another great way to use tuna is to combine it with some healthy ingredients and prepare these nice and crispy balls. It’s perfect for those who want some extra proteins in their nutrition or simply wish to eat something new and delicious. Replace your regular frying oil with extra virgin olive oil and serve with fresh vegetables.

Serves: 5

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

2 cups canned tuna, oil-free and drained

1 medium-sized red onion, finely chopped

1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

1 x 40 gram scoop Blackbelt Whey Protein Concentrate Raw Protein Powder

½ cup corn flour

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 large eggs, beaten

¼ tsp black pepper, ground

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp dried oregano, ground

4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation:

In a large mixing bowl, combine tuna, red onion, parsley, Blackbelt WPC Plain Protein Powder, garlic, eggs, pepper, salt, oregano, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix until all well incorporated. Shape the fish balls with your hands. Pat corn flour evenly on the entire surface.

Preheat the oil in large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry for 5 minutes, turning occasionally.

Remove from the pan and pat dry with some kitchen paper to remove the excess oil.
