7 steps

For the sauce, heat oil in a small saucepan, add minced garlic and sauté until soft.
Add tomatoes, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, then add basil, salt and pepper to taste.
For the cakes, blend the beans with the egg in a food processor until smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the tuna, half of the breadcrumbs and the chopped green onion, and mix thoroughly.
Form 12 small cakes from the mixture and coat each one in the remaining breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the cakes on both sides until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Serve the finished cakes with warm tomato sauce.
