Croquette Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese Mixture

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and stir for about 2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually add the milk while whisking continuously until the mixture thickens. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until fully melted and combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Form the Croquettes

    Once the cheese mixture has cooled, beat the eggs in a separate bowl. Take small portions of the cheese mixture and shape them into small balls or croquette shapes. Dip each croquette into the beaten eggs, then roll them in breadcrumbs to coat evenly.

  3. 3

    Fry the Croquettes

    In a deep frying pan, heat the oil to 180°C (350°F). Fry the croquettes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the Parmesan cheese croquettes hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
