METHOD
Making the nems
- Defrost the chicken breasts in the refrigerator. Slice into thin strips. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cut the tomato flesh into small dice.
- Lightly oil the sheets of brick; in the center of each sheet, lay some chicken strips, diced tomato and a few sprigs of parsley and basil.
- Fold up the brick to enclose the filling tightly.
- Place the nems in a baking dish; place in a 210° C (425° F) oven for about 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the brick is crispy.
Making the croquettes
- Cook the potatoes and cauliflower separately; purée and combine.
- Mix in the beaten eggs and cheese; season with salt and pepper.
- Form into uniform balls; chill; bread each ball by coating with flour, then egg beaten with a few drops of water, then bread crumbs.
- Fry on both sides until the breading is golden brown. Serve as a side dish.
