Recipe ingredients
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup (80 mL) flour
- 3/4 cup (180 mL) diced country-style ham or chopped prosciutto
- 1 2/3 cup (410 mL) Saputo Mozzarellissima cheese
- To taste freshly ground pepper
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup (150 g) sesame seeds
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) olive oil
- 2 cups (500 mL) tomato sauce (homemade or commercial)
Preparation
Mix butter and flour well with a fork; add ham, Saputo Mozzarellissima Cheese and pepper. Make four patties, flattening and shaping evenly.
In a bowl, lightly beat eggs with a fork; dip patties in egg mixture then coat well with sesame seeds. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
In a non-stick frying pan, heat oil over high heat and brown patties for about 1 minute on each side (do not overcook, sesame seeds burn easily); finish cooking in a preheated 350 ºF/175 ºC oven for approximately 20 minutes.
Pour half a cup of the tomato sauce on a plate, top with one croquette and serve with a salad consisting of mixed greens and your favourite salad dressing.
When cooked for 20 minutes, the croquettes should be soft inside and crispy outside.
