Greetings dear friends, welcome to my blog. Today I am once again joining the weekly contest Qurator's: Hive Top Chef! | Cabbage. When I read that this week's challenge had cabbage as the main ingredient, I didn't know what to do, but then I suddenly thought of making cabbage croquettes with tuna and mozzarella. To give them consistency, I decided to use potato, oatmeal, and egg.


One secret I will share is what I did to avoid gas, one of the problems with eating cabbage. I just had to boil it in water and that was it. Don't cook it, just boil water, turn off the heat, pour the chopped cabbage into a colander, stir and strain, and that will be enough.

This step not only helps prevent gas, but also softens the texture of the cabbage, which is naturally a bit tough and chewy, making it easier to prepare the croquettes. By the way, they turned out very tasty. This is the first time I've used cabbage in a recipe; I don't usually buy this vegetable. I hope you like the recipe.

7.- Form the croquettes until all the mixture is used up. Place a cube of mozzarella cheese in the center of each one and close them. Then, coat them in breadcrumbs on all sides and fry them over medium-low heat until they are golden brown on both sides. When done, place them on paper towels to remove excess grease.

All that's left is to serve them. I love dipping them in tomato sauce.
