Season the mash with black pepper and stir in the tuna, chilli, coriander, lime zest, and juice. Divide the mixture into 8 and, using wet hands, form into cakes.

Working in batches, heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan and cook the fishcakes for 3-4 mins on each side, until golden brown. Set aside in a warm place.

Heat the rest of the oil in another frying pan or wok and stir-fry the carrot and broccoli for 2 mins. Stir in the Chinese leaf and spring onions; cook for 3-4 mins until the veg has softened. Add the stir-fry sauce and cook until heated through. Serve with the fishcakes.
