Fried Croquettes Bologna Style Recipe

(Fritto composto alla Bolognese)



Take a piece of stewed lean veal, a little brain boiled or stewed, and a

slice of ham. Chop and grind everything fine. Add a yolk of egg or a

whole egg, according to the quantity, and a little Balsamella (see No.

54). Put the hash on the fire and stir until the egg is cooked. Add

finally grated cheese, a taste of nutmeg, and, if you have them, some

truffles chopped very fine and put in a plate. When quite cold make some

little balls as large as a walnut and roll them in flour. Then dip in

beaten egg and bread crumb ground very fine, repeating the operation

twice, and fry.
