Huevos Tontos: Spanish Stale Bread Fritters In Cocido Sauce
  1. Mix the bread with the eggs, garlic, parsley, mint, salt and 100 g of stock. Leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.

  2. Cook the sliced garlic in 1 tbsp olive oil until lightly golden. Add the onion and cook gently until translucent and starting to colour. Add the jamón and cook for a few minutes. Add the flour and remaining oil; stir and toast for about 5 minutes.

  3. Add the pimentón, then immediately pour in the fino. Let it reduce, add 350 g of stock and keep the sauce at a gentle simmer.

  4. Shape the mixture into small ovals with two spoons and fry until golden. Drain, then let them simmer in the sauce for a few minutes. Turn off the heat, add a bit more mint and serve.
