Rich and savoury. Crisp on the outside. Creamy bechamel inside. A fantastic tapa.
Croquetas are a typically Spanish finger food, great for parties, made from bechamel - rather than potato like the French croquettes. Crisp and golden brown bites these ones have cubes of iberico ham with a savoury and satisfying flavour.
Our frozen croquetas are a convenient way to enjoy this classic tapa without compromising on flavour and texture. They are to be deep fried from frozen for 4 min., although you can leave portions in the fridge defrosting but by doing this they will fry faster and will be much creamier.

"Some had defrosted so couldn’t use about a quarter of them"
"The Croquetas were absolutely delicious (8 mins in airfryer!). Authentic, great quality and were brilliant as canapés as well as part of a sharing platter. Thank you."
"These are a firm favourite. I do make my own but it’s very time consuming so when we want croquettas quickly theses are perfect."
"They were very good. I cooked them directly frozen and came out crispy and with good consistency. Good ham quality as well."
"Not bad. Certianly better than the supermarket croquettes but certainly not as good as homemade."
"Very disappointing. Tried cooking them from frozen in the deep fat fryer - frozen in middle - and after defrosting - exploded. Would not recommend."
"Very nice. Would recommend"
"I did not expect them to be that good. . . they were delicious!"
"Lovely- but a bit difficult to cook if you don’t have a deep fryer"
