Notes
- Mix the croquettes mixture and keep the small bits of tuna and potato intact. This gives a nice texture to the finished croquettes.
- When you beat the egg white, add 1 tbsp water to it. It makes it easier to dip in the croquettes.

- Add extra chillies, if you need it to be more spicy.
- Do not over fry the croquettes. Fry only till you get a nice golden crunch.
