Crab Croquettes With Sherry Sauce image

Sinfully delicious! My mother used to serve salmon croquettes with a white sauce. Me? I prefer crab. I like the croquettes with a Caesar salad, steamed asparagus with lemon, and warm crusty bread and cold butter. Add a nice white wine and I'm in heaven.

The croquettes were good, but I think I would prefer them baked instead of fried. I also think the sherry sauce would be better if it was made with white wine instead of sherry.

The croquettes were delicious, but the sherry sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would try a different sauce next time.

These croquettes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

The croquettes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add some more mayonnaise or butter to the mixture next time.
