1º Eso-Handouts For Week 1
Many restaurants offer croquetas in their menu, but they can be precooked, that is, frozen,
thawed and deep-fried. Every Spaniard knows that homemade croquetas are infinitely
superior than the mediocre frozen ones. It’s worth taking the time to make them from
scratch! Don’t worry if you can’t cook, this recipe can help even absolute beginners! You can
find ingredients like flour, ham, oil, milk, eggs and breadcrumbs in most supermarkets, and
you will also need salt, pepper and nutmeg.
For the next step, the bechamel must cool down for a few hours. In a separate bowl, mix in
eggs with breadcrumbs. Take spoonfuls of the bechamel, roll them into cylinders ––this is the
typical croqueta shape–– and coat them with the egg and breadcrumb mix. Now gently drop
each of the croquetas in the pan and fry until golden brown. Now your croquetas are ready
to eat! With this recipe, you probably can’t resist the temptation and eat them all.
