Ham Croquetas

Cut the ham into small cubes.
Prepare a Béchamel sauce: melt SUBLIM’ “Le Fondant” lard in a saucepan
with the flour, season with salt, mix well, then add the milk and simmer over a moderate heat until a smooth mixture is obtained.
Add the cheese(s) and diced ham, check the seasoning, then pour the mixture into a dish and leave to set in the fridge.
Once the mixture has set well, shape into little balls (about 20/25 g) and return to the fridge to set for 15 to 30 minutes.
To prepare the breadcrumbs: Take three separate bowls and add:
a tablespoon of water and a pinch of salt to 2 eggs, then beat together,
flour,
breadcrumbs.
Roll the croquettes in turn through:
the flour, the egg, and then the breadcrumbs,
Repeat these steps once more.
At this stage, they can be left uncovered in the refrigerator to prevent them from softening; you can cook them later.
When you are ready to cook them, heat SUBLIM’ “Le Fondant” lard in a saucepan.
(you can also use frying oil) and immerse the breaded croquettes in small quantities until they are nice and golden.
Drain and lightly season with salt.
Serve immediately – they are a sure-fire hit!
