Critical Success Points

  • Achieve a lump‑free béchamel.
  • Let the dough rest in the refrigerator so it firms up.
  • Coat properly so the breadcrumbs stick during frying.

Safety Warnings

  • Frying oil reaches very high temperatures; handle with care and never leave unattended.
  • Use kitchen gloves to handle the hot pan.
  • Avoid oil splatters by thoroughly drying the croquettes before frying.
