Croquetes de camarão

Croquetes de camarão are traditional Portuguese shrimp croquettes. They are made with a creamy shrimp filling, typically prepared with a mixture of shrimp, flour, butter, milk, and sometimes onions and garlic, all seasoned with herbs and spices. Tomatoes and seafood stock or seasoning are also often included. The filling is shaped into small cylinders or balls, then coated with breadcrumbs and fried until golden and crispy. These savory snacks are popular as appetizers or party foods and are loved for their creamy texture and rich seafood flavor.
