Prawn rissoles are a delicious, seafood-based snack or appetizer originating from Portuguese cuisine. These golden, crispy morsels are made by blending prawns with mashed potatoes or béchamel sauce, seasonings like garlic, parsley, and pepper, and often a touch of nutmeg for added depth. The mixture is shaped into patties or croquettes, dipped in breadcrumbs, and fried until perfectly crisp. Prawn rissoles provide a good source of protein from the prawns and essential nutrients like selenium and omega-3 fatty acids. However, the frying process can add significant calories and unhealthy fats. Baking them instead of frying can make them a healthier option while maintaining their classic flavors. Typically paired with a fresh salad or lemon wedges, prawn rissoles are a versatile dish suitable for festive gatherings or casual meals, with indulgence balanced by their nutrient-packed seafood base.
