Notes

Ensure the tuna is thoroughly drained to prevent a watery batter, which can affect the cake's structure. For a more refined texture, you can briefly pulse the tuna mixture in a food processor, being careful not to overmix. Allow the cakes to cool completely on a wire rack before garnishing to maintain their shape and prevent the shrimp from wilting. For presentation, consider finely dicing the shrimp or arranging them artfully atop the cooled tuna cakes.
