CROQUETAS: Spanish style ham and bechamel croquettes recipe (from a Spaniard!)

Would you like to learn how to make the Spanish style croquettes ("croquetas" in Spanish) that the Spaniards love, all Spanish grandmas make at home and almost every Spanish bar serves? Then, keep on watching!

In Spain, croquettes have different types, such as with cheese, mushroom, chicken and fish. We mix one of these ingredients with bechamel sauce to make the traditional Spanish croquettes. Our croquettes are not made with potatoes. For this video, we mixed the bechamel sauce with ham. Ideally, you need 2 days to make this recipe but if you're in a hurry, then a few hours in the fridge would suffice. After that, you can give it a nice croquette shape :)

Ingredients (for around 25 croquettes)
(For the mixture)
1 lt of milk
3 big spoons of flour
1 big onion
100 -150 gr of ham
50 gr of butter
Olive oil
Black pepper
Salt

(To cover the croquettes)
3 eggs
2 big spoons of flour
Dried bread crumbs
Olive oil to fry them

¡Buen provecho! Enjoy!
