How to make camembert cheese croquettes
Cut the rind off the camembert and divide the cheese into eight equal pieces. Shape each piece into a flat ball. This ensures that the cheese cooks more evenly during frying.
For coating
Prepare three deep plates:
Plate 1: for the flour
Plate 2: for beaten eggs
Plate 3: for breadcrumbs
First coat the cheese balls in flour, then dip them in the egg and finally coat them in breadcrumbs. For an extra crispy result: repeat this once more, but use panko instead of regular breadcrumbs for the second round.
Frying
Heat peanut oil in a pan. Check whether the oil is hot enough by dipping a wooden spoon into it — does it start to bubble? Then you can start frying. Fry the cheese croquettes for about 4 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
