Method

1. Drain the tuna well; mix the tuna with the egg, rolled oats, sliced scallions and lemon zest. Rest 5 minutes so the oats swell.
2. Shape 3 patties, each 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) thick, and fry in the olive oil over a medium heat 4 minutes a side, until golden and firm.
3. Stir the chopped capers and the lemon juice into the yogurt.
4. Serve on the arugula and halved tomatoes, with the caper yogurt. Cooked patties keep three days, freeze two months.
