TOP TIP! When on holiday in Spain, save yourself a considerable sum by cooking in your apartment ! POLLO Y CROQUETAS You will need: Sliced chicken breast Half a packet of frozen Croquetas Caseras de Jamon Sliced Tomato Fresh Garlic Salt and Pepper Jar of seasoning from the spices rack in the supermarket that you have no idea what it actually is. METHOD: Search for a pavement café which has condiments on the tables; order a coffee and help yourself to the wee packets of salt and pepper. Visit the local supermarket and, at the meat counter, point to a large chicken breast, wave your arms about mildly and say “fillet por favor”. The butcher will expertly cut the breast into slices (I knew how to do this by watching the locals). Back in your apartment, roughly chop as much garlic as you can handle (nobody knows you here so you can stink to high heaven!) using one of the few table knives available. If you have a decent knife, chop finely. Fry the garlic, season the chicken slices, then add to the pan and fry until cooked. Meanwhile, in a separate pan, fry the croquettes. If they turn mushy, don’t worry, just say its mash. Turn out the chicken and croquettes on to warmed plates and serve with roughly sliced tomato (thinly sliced if you have a decent knife!), and a glass of the cheapest wine you can lay your hands on, torn chunks of local bread, and a dish of olives.
