I thought these croquettes were just okay. They were a bit too greasy for my taste.

These croquettes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more seasoning next time.

These shrimp and rice croquettes were a hit at my dinner party! The combination of shrimp, rice, and cheese was perfect, and the croquettes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.
