About

Those delicious croquettes are just a reminder of our fun summers in Spain and Italy. Both country make them as an appetizer with Sangria or as an afternoon snack.
A nice salad was just a perfect companion when served for dinner. A light and warm tomato sauce or mustard are just the right side dish if you want to enjoy them as an appetizer. Either way, I am sure you will enjoy them.
I am sharing the recipe with two cooking methods: fry and baked. Of course, baking is a healthier approach.
