These croquettes are a great make-ahead appetizer. You can cook them ahead of time and then reheat them in the oven when you're ready to serve.

I'm not a big fan of saffron, but I still enjoyed these croquettes. The potato and cheese filling was very flavorful.

The aioli was a bit too runny for my taste. I would recommend using less olive oil next time.
