Notas

Removing the bread crusts helps make the mixture more even. If the mixture is too soft, refrigerate it for a few minutes before cutting and shaping. The drizzle of oil helps improve the texture, but use only a little so the mixture does not become heavy. Fry in hot oil, but not too high, so the nuggets cook inside and brown outside. Serve with ketchup, seasoned mayonnaise, barbecue sauce or any sauce you like.
