Make the croquetas 

• Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix well 
• Divide the mix into 24 walnut size balls
• Wet your hand and roll the balls into cork shapes ( the wet hands will provide a little stickiness to the outside of the croquettas that will help the flour stick )
• Place croquetas in the flour tray and roll to cover all surface (it is important to cover all surfaces)
• Place the floured croquetas in the egg mix and roll to cover all surfaces 
• Place the croquetas in the breadcrumbs tray and roll and lightly press to cover all surface
