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.

The filling was tasty if perhaps more heavily weighted to the bechamel over the ham

Amazingly delicious. Everytime we eat these we remark how they're better than many we've had in Spain.

Croquetas were absolutely delicious. Very easy to cook. Very pleased Basco prepare these, doing it yourself if very time consuming! Quality is always excellent.

Going back 30 years to our holidays in minorca with our 2 children eating out every night Our son would only eat ham croquets, On seeing your company on Facebook we ordered your ham croquets for his birthday (39th) The response was “ these take me back to our holidays the best croquets I’ve eaten since those days. He then went on to say he will order some more for his children
