Preparation

1
Brown the chicken thighs in a frying pan with 2 tablespoons of neutral oil. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
2
Fry the onion, garlic and tomato paste for 2 minutes.
3
The chicken thighs now go back into the pan. Turn down the heat now too.
4
Mix all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and add to the pan.
5
Put the lid on the pan and after about an hour, the chicken thighs will fall apart.
6
Then stir everything well and your pulled chicken is ready.

Cut a pistolet in half and top with slices of Gouda cheese. Top this with the pulled chicken and sprinkle some more grated cheese on top.

8
Place in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or remove the buns from the oven when the cheese has melted.

Making cheese croquettes

5 pers

These cheese croquettes are a delicious alternative to regular croquettes! This is how to make about 25 cheese croquettes: Soak the gelatine in cold water. Meanwhile, melt the butter with the garlic clove in a pan over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted add the flour and stir until cooked. Keep stirring and then add the stock little by little until everything is absorbed. Turn off the heat and add the cheese, mustard, onion powder, pepper, soaked gelatine and salt. Stir well and then put the mixture in a baking dish with foil over it. Leave it to cool for an hour outside the fridge and then another about 4 hours in the fridge. For breadcrumbs, put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs each in a separate deep dish. Roll balls of the cheese mixture and pass through the flour, then the egg and then the breadcrumbs. Put them in the fridge for a while and then it's time to deep-fry. About 3 minutes per ball. Thanks for your delicious recipe Danielle (@Foodaholic.co.uk)
