Ingredients

800g Maris Piper potatoes, cut into chunks

260g bag spinach

50g plain flour

2 tsp onion granules

Oil for shallow frying

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 tsp white wine vinegar

100g cherry tomatoes, halved

200g can tuna chunks in spring water, drained

Instructions

1. Cook the potatoes in boiling water for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and allow to cool. Mash and season well.

2. Meanwhile, reserve 100g spinach and cook the rest in a microwave for 2 minutes until just wilted, squeeze out the excess moisture and chop. Stir this spinach into the mash with the flour and onion granules. Season to taste. Divide into 8 and press into flat rounds.

3. Heat a little oil in a frying pan and fry the potato cakes, 2-3 at a time for 2 minutes each side until golden.

4. Mix the olive oil and vinegar together in a large bowl. Shred the reserved spinach and toss into the bowl with the tomatoes. Top the potato cakes with spinach and sprinkle over the tuna to serve.

Cooking Tips
