Some advices

Without a doubt, this dish is considered a healthy snack. That’s why we don’t fry the croquettes, but cook them in the oven. This guarantees its low fat content.

Now, if you prefer, to make the sausages softer when it comes to eating the croquettes, you can cook them before cutting them into cubes and mixing.

Probably the best way to present the croquettes is with a plate of salad, and a delicious homemade sauce. A very important detail to bear in mind is that pumpkin tends to release a lot of liquid during mixing. Remove excess liquid to avoid spoiling your croquettes.

Also, you can make your croquettes the size you want. The size we suggest here is the most common. If you make them bigger you will probably have to wait a little longer in the oven. If you make them smaller, you must be careful that they have the necessary consistency so they don’t break.
