The recipe
Ingredients
Directions
Heat hot lard in a frying basket.
Carefully place croquettes in the lard, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Fry until they are a beautiful brown.
Remove croquettes and let them drain on a pan for a few moments.
Transfer to brown paper to absorb excess grease.
Serve on a folded napkin on a platter.
If needed, keep warm in the oven on brown paper.
