Chorizo and Goats Cheese Croquette with Yogurt Sauce
The croquette (from the French croquer, “to crunch”)
The art of cooking can be simple or complex. As a child I always wanted to know how a scotch egg was made, I had eaten them but found the practical side to making them a complete nightmare.
But then I learnt the secret and now they are simple and delicious, if done correctly.
So it goes to show that something that looks simple can be complex.
