About One ham croquette
A ham croquette is a savory bite-sized snack consisting of a creamy mixture of finely chopped ham, flour, milk, and butter, seasoned with spices like nutmeg or pepper. This mixture is shaped into small cylinders, coated in breadcrumbs, and fried until golden brown. Originating from French and Spanish cuisines, croquettes are a popular treat worldwide, especially as tapas in Spain. While ham croquettes are rich in flavor and protein from the ham, they are high in calories and fat due to their frying process and the inclusion of butter and milk in the filling. They offer limited nutritional value beyond protein and are best enjoyed in moderation. For a lighter alternative, some recipes bake the croquettes instead of frying. Paired with a fresh salad, they can fit into a balanced meal as an indulgent and satisfying comfort food.
