This came out of a small Dutch cookbook that my brother sent me from Australia. I remember my mother making these, but it had been years since I'd had them. When I got the booklet, I tried it, and it was loved by all. It takes a bit of work, but is delicious. You can substitute any kind of meat. This is great for leftovers! Ingredients:
1 lb minced meat |
2 ounces butter |
2 ounces plain white flour |
16 ounces beef stock |
1 onion, finely chopped |
3 eggs |
salt |
pepper |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley |
toasted breadcrumb |
corn flake crumbs |
Directions:
1. Day 1: Melt butter in saucepan, slowly add in the flour, mix into a smooth paste.
2. Add in the stock and stir, cook for 10 minutes.
3. Fry onions and meat in a frying pan until brown, add to saucepan. Add salt, pepper, parsley, and cook for 1 minute. Pour into a dish and allow to cool overnight.
4. Day 2: Divide up into equal amounts, and roll into small oblong shapes. Roll into breadcrumbs. Beat eggs, and coat the croquettes, then roll into cornflake crumbs. Refrigerate overnight.
5. Day 3: Heat oil in a deep fat frying pan, add croquettes and fry until golden brown.
6. Makes approx 12 croquettes.
