Add the garlic and the poached onion and the carrot also chopped in brunoises but without cooking. We mix until we have a consistent and compact mixture. If it is soft, we can add cornstarch and cook the whole thing until it forms a very consistent cream. Let it cold down. Shape the croquettes and pass them through the beaten egg and the breadcrumbs. We fry them in hot oil a few at a time.
Once the croquettes are fried, we remove them to a tray with absorbent paper to remove excess oil. We serve them on hot plates accompanied by a tomato sauce.
