This recipe makes about 20 croquettes and should serve about 6 people. What is nice about this is they end up just like the ones we eat at the restaurants here in Greece. Just drizzle with a little lemon and eat hot. Read more . I'm not sure if Regatto is available everywhere but a google search would probably suggest a good substitute. Ingredients:
1 egg |
1/4 cup self-raising flour |
8 oz reggato cheese |
1 tablespoon water; optional |
vegetable oil; for frying |
Directions:
1. Mix together egg, flour and cheese.
2. If the mixture does not hold together, add a little water until the right consistency.
3. Form into small balls and refrigerate for an hour to chill.
4. Fry in a small nonstick pan in a plentiful amount of VERY hot oil to a golden color, turning once.
5. Drain on absorbent paper and serve hot, sprinkled with lemon juice.
