Description

These Salmon Croquettes are a delightful twist on the classic French appetizer, offering a perfect balance of crispy exterior and tender, flavorful filling. Made with flaked salmon, fresh celery, onion, and parsley, they are bound together with a smooth milk and flour sauce for a rich texture. Coated in breadcrumbs and fried until golden brown, they deliver a satisfying crunch with every bite. Ideal for holiday parties, dinner parties, or as an elegant snack, these croquettes are easy to prepare in advance and reheat beautifully. A versatile dish that brings comfort and sophistication to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve the flour in 1/4 cup of the milk to create a smooth slurry.
  2. Pour the remaining milk into a saucepan and whisk in the flour mixture.
  3. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and becomes smooth and bubbly.
  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the white sauce to cool thoroughly.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled sauce with the flaked salmon, minced onion, parsley, minced celery, 1/2 cup of the bread crumbs, and the beaten egg.
  6. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, mixing until well combined.
  7. Shape the salmon mixture into 12 to 15 uniform croquettes or balls.
  8. Roll each croquette in the remaining bread crumbs until completely coated.
  9. Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
  10. Fry the croquettes in batches for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  11. Remove croquettes from oil and drain on paper towels before serving.
