This is a traditional dish that you will most likely be offered to try in any institution in Spain. Delicious and hearty croquettes with a crispy crust.
Finely chop the parsley and garlic, mix with cold cream cheese, adding paprika.
Beat the eggs in a deep dish with a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of water until smooth. Pour flour into the second plate, and crackers into the third.
Put a deep frying pan with deep frying oil on the fire – you will need a temperature of 180 °C.
Wear disposable thin gloves or wet your hands in cold water. Take about a tablespoon of cheese mass and roll it into a ball, then flatten it slightly on both sides.
Roll first in flour (shake off excess), then in egg (shake off excess), then in breadcrumbs (shake off excess). Lightly deep-fry and fry, turning gently with a slotted spoon, until golden brown.
Ready croquettes with a slotted spoon carefully, so as not to puncture, spread on crumpled paper towels – let the oil drain. Serve the croquettes hot.
