Directions
Tuna & Olive Croquettes, I found this recipe when I was researching an article on Spanish food for a food story when the Olympics were in Barcelonoa in 1992 Since then, I’ve made these so many times, in so many ways They will accomodate about a zillion variations and still come out delicious Prep time doesn’t include chilling time I usually prepare the creamed mixture the day or night before , These were really good I did make a few minor adjustements by adding 2 tsp lemon juice and 3 cloves minced, sauteed garlic I also put the tuna, olives and parsley in the food processor and pulsed until mixed well prior to adding to the onion mix I replaced smart balance for the butter and fried in olive oil to make them healthier I think these would be awesome with Kalamata olives and some goat cheese as well , These were really good I did make a few minor adjustements by adding 2 tsp lemon juice and 3 cloves minced, sauteed garlic I also put the tuna, olives and parsley in the food processor and pulsed until mixed well prior to adding to the onion mix I replaced smart balance for the butter and fried in olive oil to make them healthier I think these would be awesome with Kalamata olives and some goat cheese as well
