Tips for Perfect Croquettes
- Chill the mixture before shaping for easier handling and less sticking.
- Add seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or chili flakes for extra flavor.
- Make it gluten-free by using gluten-free breadcrumbs.
- Air fry or bake as a healthier alternative — just spray with oil and cook until crisp.
- Double the batch — these freeze wonderfully and reheat well in the oven.
Serving Ideas
