Preparation Steps
1
Warm the milk until lukewarm, then stir in the sugar and yeast. Let it stand for 10 minutes, until foamy.
2
Sift the flour into a large bowl, add the salt, then pour in the yeast mixture and the egg. Begin to knead the dough.
3
Knead the dough until smooth, then cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
4
Roll out the risen dough into a rectangle, and place thin slices of 200g of cold butter on top. Fold one half of the dough over the other, then roll it out again and fold it over itself. Repeat this folding process three times, allowing 15-minute resting periods in between.
5
Dice the chorizo into small cubes, and fry them in a pan with the crushed garlic until they release their flavor. Let it cool.
6
Mix the cooled chorizo with the grated cheese to create a flavorful filling.
7
After the final roll, cut the dough into triangles. Place a small amount of chorizo-cheese filling in the center of each triangle, then roll them up into croissant shapes.
8
Place the croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
9
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Brush the croissants with a little beaten egg, then bake them for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown.
10
When the croissants are baked, let them cool slightly before serving fresh.
