Croquetas de Pollo o Jamon

Ingredients:

    - 1 chicken breast or 250 grams of diced Jamon
    - 2 boiled eggs
    - 400ml of milk
    - 1 soup spoon of butter
    - 1/2 of a medium onion
    - 3 soup spoons of flour
    - Olive oil
    - Salt
    - Nutmeg

For the FRYING of the croquettes:

    - Sunflower oil
    - 2 eggs
    - Breadcrumbs
    - Salt

Process:

Cut the COOKED meat or any other item which will be your main ingredient into very small pieces (chicken, ham, mushrooms, cheese…)

In a sauce pan we put the butter and the olive oil, when melted we add the onions which we will cook until soft (down allow them to go brown)

Add the flour and mix it well with the butter, oil and onion    

Add the milk and the nutmeg and stir constantly 

Remove from the stove when you have a thick mixture and add the main ingredient, the boiled eggs and mix it all together. Once cold put it in the fridge so it will be easier to do the croquettes

Once cold you do then the forms of the croquettes (you can do any form you want). Then put the first through egg and then breadcrumbs and repeat the same process twice for each croquette to create a nice “coat”

Put a sauce pan with sunflower oil at medium-high heat and fry each croquette until golden brown
