The story behind
I love this recipe because it proves that healthy food can also be an amazing treat. It reminds me of those afternoon get-togethers with my family where we'd serve these croquettes as snacks while catching up on everything. They have Mediterranean roots, but at home, we give them a special touch with whatever we have in the pantry. They’re perfect for a light lunch or even an afternoon snack. I recommend pairing them with a garlic yogurt dip or a spicy sauce, and to drink, a cold iced tea is the perfect match.
Instructions
-
1First, make sure the spinach is squeezed dry after cooking so the mixture doesn't get too soggy.
-
2In a bowl, mix the spinach with the eggs, cheese, and seasonings.
-
3Gradually add the breadcrumbs until you can form small balls with your hands without them sticking too much.
-
4Heat the oil and fry the croquettes until they are golden brown and crispy all over.
-
5Place them on a paper napkin to drain the excess oil and enjoy them while they're nice and hot!
