We love potato everything , but while preparing this recipe I did not add any potatoes. Just drain your tuna well and let breadcrumbs and lemon juice do their work.
When started to combine the ingredients for Spicy Tuna Cakes Recipe, I wanted to wrap them in piadine:
Piadine are made of flour, water and lard and are a bit crumblier than tortillas. I usually make frittata with sausages and fold it into roasted piadina, add some herbs and it makes perfect Saturday lunch done in a flesh.
My son prefers fruits and spreads folded; doing brunch with fresh fruits for him, I do not expose piadina to heat but simply spread honey and sprinkle with fruit salsa before folding.
To me, there is no big difference between the doughs but it is easier to fold tortillas to make the wraps. If you are used to make both tortillas and piadine from scratch, you could hardly know the difference in taste. Except if you add some spices or herbs into the dough but then, itโs completely new levelโฆ
