Ham and Cheese croquettes Pyjamas

• 115 g butter
• 215 g plain flour
• 450 ml milk
• 2 egg yolks
• 125 g block mozzarella, grated
• 100 g gruyère cheese, grated
• 100 g cooked ham, very finely chopped
• 1 egg
• 100 g very fine, dry breadcrumbs
• sunflower oil, for deep-frying
• 
  

1. Make a roux by melting the butter in a small saucepan on a low-medium heat then adding 115g of the flour. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring regularly, then leave to cool.

2. Pour the milk into a saucepan, bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer. Whisk in the roux, a little at a time, until it is well blended. Simmer until the mixture thickens and forms a smooth white sauce.

3. Remove the sauce from the heat and allow to cool a little. Stir in the egg yolks, both cheeses, the ham and chives and allow to cool completely, when the mixture will become putty-like.

4. To prepare the coating, put the remaining 100g flour on a plate or in a bowl and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Beat the egg in a separate bowl and put the breadcrumbs on another plate or in a bowl.

5. Mould the cooled sauce into about 30 sausage shapes or round balls. Toss each one in flour, dip in the egg, then roll in the breadcrumbs to coat.

6. Fill a deep-fat fryer with sunflower oil and heat to 170C. (If the oil is any hotter, the filling tends to leak out.) The cheese balls can also be shallow-fried: pour the oil into a deep, medium saucepan to a depth of 2cm and heat to 170C, checking the temperature with a thermometer (see Cook’s Tips). When the oil is at the right temperature, deep-fry the cheese balls in small batches for about 8 minutes, turning them a few times in the oil until rich golden in colour. Drain on kitchen paper.

7. Serve immediately, with tomato relish.

KEEP YOUR GRUBBY MITTS OFF MY BOOKS YOU HORRIBLE PEOPLE or at least stick to the story!!

Don't want to leave my phone for a second today, today is when I find out whether I'm working for the NHS for the next year. Do I even want the job? Home? Career? Family. These are defining times and the right decision is so hard to find. I know what's expected and selfishly it takes away any potential.

2.1? I'll be lucky.

You could have all you ever wanted...I know....But I don't want it.....no.....I can't want it.....anymore.

I miss my home friends, third year leaves no time for proper communication. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It takes a while to realise how true this is.

And I want one of these. <3
