Chard is one of my favorite vegetables, and is also very popular here in Aragon. It can be eaten in many ways, as both the leaves and stems (stalks) are edible. These ones were brought by my grandfather, who has a little orchard, and I suppose that during the season,we'll have the house filled with pounds and pounds of chard!
Ingredientes para cuatro personas:
- 5 hojas de acelgas con tallos.
- 100 g de jamón serrano.
- 100 g de queso tierno en lonchas.
- Harina de trigo.
- 2 huevos.
- 500 ml de aceite de oliva
- Sal.
Elaboración:Quitamos la parte verde de la acelga, dejando el tallo blanco o penca. Limpiamos bien las pencas y quitamos los hilos de las partes más duras. Las troceamos en rectángulos de unos 5 centímetros de largo y las cocemos en un recipiente con agua y sal durante media hora. Una vez cocidas las pencas, las sacamos del agua de cocción y las dejamos en una bandeja para que se enfríen.
Una vez frías las pencas cocidas, las preparamos como si fuera un bocadillo, encima de un trozo de penca un trozo igual de queso, uno de jamón y tapamos con otro de penca.
Rebozamos con harina y huevo y freímos en aceite caliente. Una vez fritas las sacamos a una bandeja o a un plato con papel de cocina para que la grasa de la fritura se elimine.
Se pueden comer acompañadas de una mayonesa ligera o de una salsa verde con almejas, como plato principal.

Then cut into rectangles about 5 inches long and boil in salted water for half an hour. Once cooked took them out of the cooking water and leave them on a tray to cool.Once the stalks are cold, prepare them as a sandwich: stalk, cheese, ham and stalk.
Coat with egg and flour and fry in hot oil. Once fried remove from the pan and put them on a tray or a plate with paper towels so that the fat is removed.
They can be eaten with light mayonnaise or green sauce with clams as the main dish.
