Cheese Croquettes (Tirokeftedes)

Cheese croquettes, or ‘tirokeftedes’ in Greek, are a meze staple in the island tavernas. Just imagine, a bowl of fresh, hot cheese croquettes, someone to chat to, a chilled glass of wine in hand, on a terrace by the turquoise sea!

Well, that’s not quite the usual scene for my homemade croquettes in Cambridge…but when it’s sunny in the UK, we don’t half appreciate it do we! Come rain or shine, whether you’re gathered around the dining table inside with friends or all taking in some rays in the garden, these crunchy, gooey balls of deliciousness are WELL worth a place at the table!
