Ingredients

  • Cabbage – 400g (about 14 oz)
  • Potatoes – 4 medium
  • Egg – 1
  • Cheese – 100g (about 3.5 oz)
  • Clarified butter – 3 tablespoons
  • Milk – 0.5 cup
  • Flour – 3 heaping tablespoons
  • Breadcrumbs – 2 tablespoons + extra for coating
  • Fresh parsley – a few sprigs
  • Salt, black pepper, cumin, coriander to taste

Instructions

Peel the potatoes, cut them into pieces, and boil until soft. Drain the water and mash the potatoes into a puree. Shred the cabbage.

In a deep skillet, heat the clarified butter and sauté the coriander and cumin. Add the cabbage, stir, then pour in the milk and simmer on low heat until the cabbage is tender.

Using a blender, puree the cabbage and mix it with the cooled mashed potatoes. Add the lightly beaten egg, finely grated cheese, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley, and stir to combine. Incorporate the breadcrumbs and mix well.

Form the mixture into croquettes, coat them in breadcrumbs, and fry on both sides in heated oil until golden brown.
