Peel and cube the russet potato, then boil in salted water until completely tender when pierced with a fork, about 12–15 minutes. Drain, mash until smooth, and spread on a plate to cool to room temperature.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, cooled mashed potato, breadcrumbs, vegan mayonnaise, parsley, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the mixture is uniform and holds together when pressed — it should feel firm enough to shape without crumbling.
