Shrimp croquettes

Thaw the shrimps and cook them in a frying pan with a very small sliced garlic and a dash of EVOO.

Once the shrimp are done, add a heaping tablespoon of whole wheat flour and cook it together with the shrimp for 2-3 minutes (you can make the béchamel sauce separately, but since there is a small amount of shrimp, I made sure to make the right amount of béchamel sauce).

Add warm or hot milk and stir, add more or less, but the dough should be very thick.

Remove from the heat and pour into a glass dish, wait for it to cool and cover well with plastic wrap, touching the dough so that it does not become crusty. Once cold, put it in the refrigerator and let it rest for at least 8 hours, I always leave it overnight.

To coat them, put some flour on a plate, beaten egg and wholemeal breadcrumbs (crushed wholemeal breadcrumbs).

With the help of a spoon, we take portions of the dough, dip them in flour, then in egg and finally in breadcrumbs. Here you can freeze them or fry them.

Ready to enjoy... Croquettes do not disappoint 😜.
