TUNA & OLIVE CROQUETTES
I found this recipe when I was researching an article on Spanish food for a food story when the Olympics were in Barcelonoa in 1992. Since then, I've made these so many times, in so many ways. They will accomodate about a zillion variations and still come out delicious. Prep time doesn't include chilling time. I usually prepare the creamed mixture the day or night before.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
- Drain the tuna and measure the liquid. Add enough milk to equal 1/4 cup liquid. Whisk into flour mixture, cooking until thickened.
- Season with salt and pepper and stir in tuna and olives. Refrigerate the mixture until cold.
- Shape 1/4 cup of the mixture into a patty. Coat with flour, then egg, then bread crumbs.
- Fry in a little hot oil in a skillet, turning once or twice, until crisp and golden outside, a total of about 6 minutes per side.

[email protected]These croquettes were delicious! The tuna and olive filling was flavorful and the breadcrumb coating was crispy and golden brown. I served them with a side of tartar sauce and they were a hit with my family. I will definitely be making these again.
