I have some easy to remember proportions that will be very useful to obtain exceptional croquettes. One hundred grams of butter, one hundred of flour and one liter of milk. With these three ingredients and in those quantities we will make a delicious béchamel with which to prepare some great croquettes, in this case, of cooked meat.
About quantity of meat (or fish) that we will put ... everything will depend on our tastes, if we like croquettes with more or less "bumps". And, since croquettes are usually a harvest recipeIt will also depend on the amount of meat that, in this case, we have left over.
Do not stop trying them but have patience Because, for the milk to be well absorbed, it will take us a long time, and we will have to stir constantly.
Butter, flour and milk ratio for my best croquettes
Delicious croquettes, in this case meat. But with those proportions of fat, flour and milk we can also make them from fish.

Ingredients
For the mass:
- 100 butter g
- 100 g flour
- 1 liter of hot milk
- Sal Island
- Nutmeg
- 200-400 g of stew meat (more or less, depending on what we have and our tastes)
For the batter:
- 1 egg
- Milk
- Bread crumbs
Preparation
We chop or shred the meat that we have left over from the stew.
We put the butter in a non-stick frying pan.
Add the butter and mix for a few minutes.
Little by little we are incorporating the milk, mixing continuously so that there are no lumps.
We have to add the milk little by little, waiting for the flour to absorb the milk that we incorporate before adding more milk. It will take time to get the perfect kibble dough so be patient.
We add salt and nutmeg.
Once we have incorporated the liter of milk and when we see that the dough is getting to have a good consistency, we incorporate the meat. Mix well and cook for a few more minutes.
We spread our dough on a tray covered with greaseproof paper. We let it cool, first at room temperature and then in the refrigerator.
Once the dough is cold, we shape the croquettes with a couple of spoons. We then pass them through a mixture of egg and milk and then through breadcrumbs.
We fry them in abundant oil and serve immediately.

Hello, this is an inmate trying to learn to cook. Could you tell me, please, how many croquettes come out (approx.) With the amounts you indicate? Thank you very much for all the recipes :)
Greetings and a lot of encouragement these days.
You can add wholemeal flour to the croquette dough as a substitute for the egg, since my daughter is allergic, thanks
Hello Sandra. Actually, I use the egg only for the batter. Substitute it for milk (you coat the croquettes in milk and breadcrumbs) and they will be just as delicious.
I hope I've helped.
A hug
