Cabrales’ croquettes (Croquetas al cabrales)

Ingredients for 3 - 4 persons:

- Cabrales cheese, 150 grams (You can also use blue cheese or roquefort)
- Flour, 3 spoons
- Oil, 5 spoons
- Milk, 2 cups
- Egg, 2 units
- Breadcrumbs, 30 grams

1. Put 5 spoons of oil in a pot and heat it, add the flour, stir it quickly and add the milk gradually, stirring with a wooden spoon.
 

2. Add the chopped cheese and continue stirring until cooked 5 minutes, without stop stirring so it dissolve properly.
 

3. Then, put it into a flat dish and let it cool. (It needs 2 – 3 hours at least untill it gets cold and it forms a compact mixture, and it is better if you put it in the fridge) If you don’t do this it is impossible to give them form!

4. Once the mixture is ready, form the croquettes and roll it in beaten eggs, then the breadcrumbs. 

5. Heat lot of oil in a pan and fry the croquettes until they get golden - brown. Take them out from the pan and let them drain on absorbent paper or kitchen papaer. Put them in a dish and serve hot.

Eh voila! Bon appetit!
