About Rissois de carne

Rissois de Carne are savory Portuguese croquettes filled with seasoned minced beef, onions, and a hint of garlic, all encased in a soft, doughy shell. This shell is made from a mixture of flour, water, and butter, which is shaped around the filling, breaded, and deep-fried to golden perfection. Hailing from Portuguese cuisine, these bite-sized snacks are a popular appetizer or party food, loved for their crispy exterior and flavorful filling. While Rissois de Carne provide protein and energy from the beef and dough, the deep-frying process adds significant fat and calories, making them a treat best enjoyed in moderation. For a lighter version, baking or air-frying can be considered as healthier alternatives to traditional frying. Their rich taste and satisfying texture make them a comfort food classic, steeped in the culinary traditions of Portugal.
