Croquettes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Tapioca

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the tapioca pearls and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are translucent and chewy. Drain and let cool.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked tapioca, shredded cheese, egg, flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Shape Croquettes

    Wet your hands and take a small portion of the dough to shape into small balls or patties.

  4. 4

    Fry Croquettes

    Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, gently place the croquettes in the oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
