Classic Béchamel Croquettes with Ham Broth

About

Classic Béchamel Croquettes with Ham Broth are a delightful twist on traditional croquettes, offering a rich and savory flavor profile. These croquettes are made with a creamy béchamel sauce, which is enhanced by the addition of ham broth. The béchamel sauce, typically made with butter, flour, and milk, provides a smooth and velvety texture. The ham broth adds depth and a meaty flavor, complementing the savory elements of the dish. To prepare these croquettes, a mixture of ham, béchamel sauce, and sometimes additional ingredients like onions or bacon, is formed into small shapes. The mixture is then coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until golden and crispy. The combination of the creamy interior and the crunchy exterior makes these croquettes a satisfying snack or appetizer. They are perfect for special occasions or everyday meals, offering a unique blend of flavors that elevate the traditional recipe.
