Crab Cream Croquettes
I made these for my husband, who loved bechamel sauce based dishes.
If you poke each croquette with a toothpick, they say that steam is let out and the croquettes won't burst. (See Satoka-san's.) I did an experiment, poking half of the croquettes and not poking the other half, and I can report that the un-poked ones will reliably burst. If you leave the croquettes in the frying oil for too long, they will develop small fissures on the surface and the filling will leak out eventually. So don't fry the croquettes for a long time at a low temperature; just fry them briefly and take them out quickly and they'll be fine! As long as they are about as browned as the ones in the photo (they're still a little pale) and crispy on the surface, take them out right away. For 16 croquettes. Recipe by Maane

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Take the crabmeat out of the shell and shred it.
- 2
Add the butter to a frying pan and melt it over medium heat. When it's melted and foamy, add the flour little by little in 4 to 5 portions, stirring well between additions. Mix the butter and flour well with a wooden spatula so that they blend together. Be careful not to let it burn.
- 3
Add the milk, again little by little, mixing well to incorporate it with the roux between additions.
- 4
When all the milk has been added, the sauce should be thick like this. It should stiffen when cooled, but if it's already very thick when still hot add a little more milk. If it's too liquid on the other hand, just keep mixing it over heat for a while and it will thicken very soon.
- 5
Add the crabmeat, plus the pepper, Parmesan cheese, soup stock granules and wine. Bring the sauce briefly to a boil to evaporate the alcohol. Taste while adding the soup stock; if it tastes too rich, reduce the amount. Turn off the heat, and mix the egg yolks in very well.
- 6
Pour the sauce into a shallow container lined with plastic wrap. When it's cooled down to room temperature cover with more plastic wrap and chill well in the refrigerator. If the cream filling is soft it will become easy to handle after about an hour in the refrigerator.
- 7
When it's cooled and easy to handle, score the surface into 15 to 16 portions. Form the portions with oiled hands into small barrel shapes.
- 8
Mix the ● ingredients together to make the coating liquid. Dip the croquettes into the liquid, then coat with panko. If you like the coating to be thick, dip the croquettes back in the liquid and then in the panko a second time.
- 9
Cut a piece of absorbent paper into a rectangle and line the breaded croquettes on it. Put it in the frying oil paper and all. (Take the paper out with cooking chopsticks.) This way the croquettes won't fall apart in the oil, and there's less chance of burning yourself. Deep fry them quickly in 170-180°C oil. (See Hints.)

Today I made a fresh tomato-based chili sauce to go with the croquettes. See.

Very Creamy Crab Croquettes Very Creamy Crab Croquettes
I wanted to use up some crab meat.When adding the flour and milk to the pan, keep on stirring constantly. This way, you can avoid the sauce from burning or forming lumps.I divided the filling into 8 portions, but they are easier to fry if you form them into small shapes, and are less liable to burst in oil. In addition, if you fry the croquettes after breading them while the filling is still cold, they're also more likely to burst in the oil. So let them warm up at room temperature after coating them. You only have to fry the croquettes very briefly. For 8 croquettes. Recipe by Minrin

Potato & Corn Cream Croquettes Potato & Corn Cream Croquettes
I wanted to make cream croquettes easily. These have a different yet still delicious flavor compared to potato only or bechamel sauce only croquettes.If you want croquettes that are a little bit more floury, increase the amount of potatoes used. If you like creamier croquettes, increase the amount of milk. (You can increase it to 120 to 130 ml and still form the croquettes. Coat with plenty of flour, then coat right away with egg and breadcrumbs. If you just can't form them though, put the filling in the refrigerator or freezer for a while until it stiffens up, then form it. Try forming it into small croquettes, which will be easier to handle.) For 8 croquettes. Recipe by Masacchi -

If you want the crab flavor to be more pronounced, saute the crab meat in a separate frying pan before adding to the cream sauce. I fried king oyster mushrooms along with the crab meat too.
