Ham Croquetas Reviews

Spanish Serrano Ham Croquetas - these are a world away from the frozen potato affairs you find skulking at the bottom of supermarket freezers. You'll find these croquetas gracing some of the best pintxos bars in San Sebastian. These are entirely hand-made not with potato but with a thick bechamel made from the local milk of the region. Hand rolled and coated in breadcrumbs they are made using the best ingredients. In this case using 16 month cured reserva serrano ham. Making your own croquetas is great fun but this not only takes out some of the hard labour but ensure your getting the authentic croquetas experience made with top quality Spanish ingredients. They make a perfect tapas or pintxos, just deep fry from frozen in medium hot oil until golden brown on the outside or shallow fry in small batches, turning often, until a lovely, crunchy golden colour for 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve immediately. Come frozen in trays of 12 croquetas of approx. 50g each. Cook from frozen.

Superb texture and flavour, just like the ones I enjoy at seafront bars in Puerto del Carmen.

Really delicious Croquetas, tasty, well seasoned filling and a crispy coating (When shallow fried correctly) a little bit of a nack to the frying to stop them going too far, but once you've got it they're delicious.

Amazing croquetas, just like the ones my mum makes. I order them, together with other delicious Spanish products. Everything came very well packed with ice packs. The delivery was very fast too. I’ll definitely keep on ordering products from Basco Fine Foods.

Absolutely Beautiful ! I didn't expect them to be so good, the texture was amazing. What was just as amazing is the packaging they arrived in, they were still well frozen. I well definitely buy these again.
