Delicious Beef Croquettes: Flavor and Tradition

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- The wheat flour cooked directly in the meat sauté absorbs the juices and creates the thick modeling dough. - Pre-cooling the dough is fundamental so that the croquettes maintain the cylindrical shape without deforming. - Double breading in beaten eggs and breadcrumbs seals the surface and ensures a crispy crust.

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour

Chef Tips

- Deixe a massa esfriar completamente na geladeira por 30 minutos antes de enrolar os croquetes para não grudar. - Molde cilindros uniformes de cerca de 5 cm de comprimento para que fritem por igual no mesmo tempo de óleo. - Mantenha o óleo em fogo médio estável para que a casquinha doure ao mesmo tempo em que o centro aquece.

Variations

- Adicione 2 colheres de sopa de cheiro-verde fresco picado e 1 pitada de noz-moscada à massa antes de moldar. - Misture 1 colher de sopa de mostarda dijon à carne cozida para conferir uma nota picante e aromática. - Asse os croquetes empanados no forno a 200°C por 20 minutos virando na metade caso prefira evitar frituras.

Substitutions

- The ground beef can be replaced by ground pork leg or ground beef chuck with shoulder. - The breadcrumbs for breading can be replaced by panko flour to obtain a lighter crunch. - Chopped white onion can be replaced by chopped leek sautéed in butter.

How to Store

Keep the fried croquettes in a container with paper towels in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat while preserving the crispy texture, bake at 180°C for 10 minutes or heat in the air fryer for 4 minutes at 170°C.

Can You Freeze It?

Congele os croquetes já empanados antes de fritar, distribuídos em bandeja por 2 horas e depois em sacos plásticos por até 90 dias. Frite-os ainda congelados diretamente no óleo quente a 170°C por cerca de 4 a 5 minutos.

What to Serve With

Serve with artisanal dark mustard, chili pepper sauce, lemon slices, and pickled green olives. Pairs perfectly with ice-cold draft beer, artisanal pale ale, or lemon caipirinha.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to prevent meat croquettes from bursting during frying?

Bread perfectly without leaving gaps in the shell and fry a maximum of 4 units at a time so as not to cool the oil.

Posso utilizar sobras de carne assada ou carne de panela desfiada?

Sim, processe a carne cozida com os temperos e junte a farinha na panela; a receita fica ainda mais aromática.

The dough became too soft to roll, how do I fix it?

Return the dough to the pan over low heat, add 1 more tablespoon of wheat flour and stir until it releases.

Why coat in beaten egg before breadcrumbs?

The liquid egg white and yolk act as essential glue to fix the breadcrumb particles around the croquette.
