Crab Croquettes With Sherry Sauce image

Sinfully delicious! My mother used to serve salmon croquettes with a white sauce. Me? I prefer crab. I like the croquettes with a Caesar salad, steamed asparagus with lemon, and warm crusty bread and cold butter. Add a nice white wine and I'm in heaven.

These croquettes were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would use less butter next time.

These croquettes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some Old Bay seasoning or Creole seasoning to the crab mixture next time.

I've made these croquettes several times and they always turn out great. They're a bit time-consuming to make, but they're worth the effort. I like to serve them with a remoulade sauce.
