Korokke from Palau

                                                                                Receta en Español

Korokke are a kind of croquettes that are usually prepared in Palau, they come from the japanese cuisine and are eaten as snack or starter.

This is the most widespread way to preparing Korokke in Palau, using a vegetable called water spinach.

It is a difficult to find vegetable, but you can use spinachs instead of water spinachs.

Korokke Ingredients:

- 2 tuna cans 113 g.

- 300 grams spinachs.

- Half an onion.

- 4 tablespoon of soy sauce.

- Salt.

- 250 grams flour.

- 2 eggs.

- 2 cups of water.

Sauce Ingredients:

- Vinegar.

- Chive.

- Soy sauce.

- Powdered garlic.

- Powdered onion.

Method:

1- Wash and cut spinachs.

2- Cut onion in little pieces.

3- Put spinachs in a bowl , add tuna and onion, mix well.

4- Add the eggs, mix well.

5- Add soy sauce.

6- Add flour, mix well.

7- Add water, salt and mix well.

8- Take a frying pan, pour some oil and heat it. Once the oil is hot take a spoonful of the dough and pour it into the oil. Fry 4 minutes every side until they are golden.

9- Put korokke on an absorbent paper to get rid of the excess of oil.

10- Now we are going to make the sauce; mix vinager with the same quantity of soy sauce, add chive, salt, powdered garlic and onion.

Mix well (instead of powdered onion I used little pieces of onion, but it is better to use the powder).

This sauce is used to dip in the korokkes.

You can complete the dish adding some white rice.
