• Place dipping sauce in a sandwich size Ziplock baggie.
• Heat oil in large pan.
• Cook tuna cakes for approx 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown, turning cakes only once to get good color.
• When browned on each side, remove and place on a paper towel to drain off excess oil.
• Take baggie with the dipping sauce and barely snip off one of the corners of the baggie. Drizzle the sauce over the top of each cake.
