Methods and Directions
(i)FOURMED’AMBERT CROQUETTES WITH QUINCE JAM- To create a béchamel (the base of the croquette) melt the butter in a pan, add 130g of plain flour and cook for 5 minutes, stirring all the time. Then slowly add the milk a little at a time, beating really well after each addition to keep the roux smooth. When all of the milk has been added, set the pan over a medium low heat and stir until it just comes to simmer, then cook the sauce gently for 5 minutes, stirring all the time. The béchamel will be very thick and smooth.
- Remove from the heat. Cube the cheese and add to the béchamel and stir for 2 minutes so the cheese melts into the hot béchamel.
- Spread out the béchamel onto a plastic tray or large dish to cool. Chill in the fridge for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight until it is firm.
- Prepare 3 bowls and fill one with the remaining flour, one with the beaten egg and one with the bread crumbs. With the help of 2 spoons, shape the mixture into 24 balls; roll in flour, then egg and then bread crumbs.
- Heat enough oil in a deep frying pan to a depth of 4cm, to 190°C. Take the croquettes and fry 4 at a time for about 2 minutes until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper and continue to cook the rest. Serve while still hot with the quince jam.
