Your recipe sounds excellent, thank you for sharing it! Although personally, I would only add pepper, but not salt, due to an unfortunate intolerance I have against foods that are very high in salt!

I think that next time I arrange a food buffet, I might make some tuna cakes with spring onion salsa, based on the inspiration of this thread!
