Step 2Place the potato, tuna, cheese, zucchini, spring onions, parsley and 1 egg in a large bowl. Stir to combine. Use about 1/4 cups of the mixture and shape into a patty, around 5cm wide. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make 12 patties.

Step 3Whisk the remaining 2 eggs in a bowl. Place the flour on a plate and the breadcrumbs on another plate. Working one at a time, coat the patty in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip in the beaten eggs and then coat in breadcrumbs. Place on a tray. Repeat until all patties have been crumbed.
