How to make Cassava and Cheese Croquettes:
1 Get all the ingredients ready for these delicious yucca croquettes.
2 Peel and cook the yucca in boiling water for 45 minutes or until completely soft.
3 When the yucca is very soft, we place it in a bowl and crush it with our hands until we obtain small pieces.
4 Add the egg along with the milk, salt and pepper to continue with the preparation of the homemade croquettes.
5 Add the flour and grated cheese, knead until you have a compact dough, this will stick a little in your hands. You can use a mixture of cheeses for pizza.
6 Form balls using a little extra flour. Make them the size you prefer, but we recommend making them a medium size, not too big so that they cook well when frying and not too small either because they can open during cooking.
7 Fry the yucca and cheese croquettes in abundant hot oil until they are completely golden. Taste with sauce of our choice.
