How to make it
- In salted pot of boiling water, cook quinoa for 20 minutes, remove from the heat and leave it in the pan until it cools. (As the quantity needed is small I doubled the dose and with the remaining half I prepared a dessert).
- Wash the vegetables and let them drain from the water.
- Grate the courgettes and place into a colander with salt for half an hour.
- Squeeze to remove any remaining fluid.
- Break the egg into the bowl and add the cheese, chopped herbs and salt and pepper.
- Do not add too much salt, as the cheese has salt and don’t forget that we added salt to the grated courgettes.
- Add the quinoa and continue to massage the mixture between fingers after adding flour until you have a smooth, but not runny, consistency.
- After this, the mixture is helped by being allowed to stand in the fridge for, at least, an hour, before frying in olive oil.
- Make the croquettes and run them in some flour. Fry in hot olive oil. The level of olive oil in the frying pan should cover half the croquette.
- Turn the croquettes once, browning both sides.
- Place them on a platter and decorate with the anchovy fillets.
