Panko crusted tuna tofu crab patties. Imitation cr Panko crusted tuna tofu crab patties. Imitation crab adds perfect amount of sweetness and panko keeps it extra crispy. For real so good. 

Trying to cut carbs so served with quinoa brown rice and green salad. But hot white rice would be that much better. Either way this is a winner 🥳

Ingredients:
1/3 - 1/2 block tofu
1/3 - 1/2 pack imitation crab
1 can/bottle tuna
1 egg
onion, small diced
carrot, shredded
cilantro
green onion
mayo
oyster sauce
1 clove garlic, pressed or grated
sprinkle of panko

Mix and form into patties. Coat in remaining panko. Pan fry on med high until golden and crispy. Serve while hot. Sit back and soak up the compliments 🤩
