Golden and crisp on the outside, molten and smokey on the inside, these Spanish-style ham croquetas mean business. A smokey aioli for dipping, a crisp gourmet leaf salad lifted with fresh lemon and suddenly a Tuesday night feels like a Barcelona tapas bar.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then
add a generous pinch of salt.
• Peel potato and cut into large chunks.
• Cook potato in the boiling water over high heat until
easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and
return to the saucepan.
• Add paprika spice blend (see ingredients) and
mash until smooth. Set aside to cool.

2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice red apple into wedges.
• Thinly slice red radish.
• Slice lemon into wedges.
• Finely chop garlic.
• Roughly chop sliced smoked ham.

3

• To the pan with mashed potato, add garlic, ham,
grated mozzarella and generous pinch of salt and
pepper. Stir until well combined.
• Shape potato mixture into 2cm-wide and 7cm-long
oval croquetas (roughly 6 per person).
• In a shallow bowl, place the plain flour. In a second
shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl,
place panko breadcrumbs. Dip croquetas into the
flour to coat, then into the egg and finally into the
breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

4

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with
enough olive oil to coat the base.
• When oil is hot, cook croquetas in batches, turning
occasionally, until golden, 2-4 minutes. Transfer to a
paper towel-lined plate.

5

• In a large bowl, combine gourmet leaf mix, apple,
radish, a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon
juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
