How to prepare Scalded Gofio

  1. We put all the gofio in a bowl and make a small hole in the middle to add the hot broth little by little.
  2. We continue beating while we gradually add the fish stock until we obtain a soft and light dough.
  3. We chop and add the mint. to the mix.
  4. We cut the garlic as we like.
  5. In a frying pan, brown them and set aside.
  6. We add the garlic to the Gofio.
  7. We cut the onion into large pieces and place it around the bowl where the scalded gofio was served.

Make the Croquettes

  1. We make the mojo sauce by blending all the ingredients in a blender.
  2. We add 3 tablespoons of the mojo sauce to the gofio scald and form small, elongated balls, like croquettes.
  3. We make a sea bass carpaccio by slicing it very, very thinly and setting it aside.
  4. Now all that’s left is to plate it.
