Steps:
- In a bowl, mix the potatoes, 1/4 cup flour, cheese, and ham with a large rubber spatula until combined. Season with salt and pepper, to taste and divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Rub your hands with a small amount of flour and form the portions into small flat disks about 1/2-inch thick. Use just enough flour to keep the potatoes from sticking to your hands, but do not coat them completely.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Shallow-fry the croquettes, turning once, until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper-towel lined plate. Let the croquettes cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
- Cook's Note: This recipe doubles easily if you have enough leftover potatoes.

Steps:
- To make the croquetas, melt the butter in a medium saucepan and gently fry the onion for 3 mins or until lightly coloured. Stir in the flour and cook for 30 secs. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly, and cook over a low heat for 5 mins until thick and glossy. Stir in the ham, cheese, mustard and cream, and season to taste. Cook for 1 min more until the cheese melts, stirring constantly.
- Pour into a bowl and cover the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. Leave to cool, then chill for 4 hrs or overnight - the mixture needs to be very stiff to form the croquetas. Take heaped teaspoons of the mixture and, with wet hands, roll into 24 small oval shapes and put on a tray. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl, put the flour on a plate and half of the breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- Roll each of the croquetas lightly in flour, then in egg before coating in breadcrumbs. Place on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Use the remaining breadcrumbs to top up the bowl halfway through the coating process. Chill for 30 mins (or to freeze, see tip, below left).
- Meanwhile, make the tomato chilli jam. Put all the ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover loosely with a lit and cook for 50 mins - 1 hr, stirring occasionally, until thick and glossy. Leave to cool before serving.
- Fill a large saucepan one-third full with the sunflower oil and heat to 180C (or heat the oil in an electric deep-fat fryer). Do not overheat and do not leave hot oil unattended. Using a metal slotted spoon, lower 6 croquets into the oil and cook for 1.5 mins or until golden brown. Transfer to a baking tray lined with kitchen paper to absorb excess oil, and continue cooking the rest. Serve with the chilli jam for dipping.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat, stirring to prevent burning. Add flour and whisk together. Add milk, and whisk until smooth. Add in celery salt and Worcestershire sauce. Take off heat and whisk until combined and smooth. Add in ham, cheese and green onion. Chill at least two hours.

MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER'S HAM CROQUETTES
I don't know how this recipe came to be, but we know my great-grandmother made this. It is made with diced ham in the oven and covered in bread crumbs. After shaping them, you can put cheese or anything you want into the middle for a filling. I personally like cream cheese or Cheddar cheese in mine but you can put whatever you want in the middle.

Steps:
- Stir together rice, ham, cheese, 1 egg, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Put remaining egg (lightly beaten) and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls.
- Heat 1 to 1 1/2 inches oil to 350°F in a 10-inch skillet over high heat. Meanwhile, dampen your hands and form 1/4-cup amounts of rice mixture into 2 1/2-inch cakes. Lightly coat with egg, then with bread crumbs. Fry croquettes in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh ham, creamy cheese, and a crispy breadcrumb coating are essential.
- Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful filling. A combination of hard and soft cheeses, such as Parmesan, cheddar, and mozzarella, will give you a rich and complex flavor.
- Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing will make the croquettes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Shape the croquettes into uniform balls or cylinders. This will help them cook evenly.
- Coat the croquettes in breadcrumbs before frying. This will help them stay crispy and golden brown.
- Fry the croquettes in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the croquettes will not cook evenly.
- Serve the croquettes hot with your favorite dipping sauce. A simple tomato sauce or a creamy garlic sauce are both good choices.
Conclusion:
Ham and cheese croquettes are a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a crispy breadcrumb coating and a flavorful ham and cheese filling, these croquettes are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
