These croquettes were a little bland. I think I will add some more spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my croquettes turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The spinach flavor was perfect.

These croquettes were a little too oily for my taste. I think I will try baking them next time instead of frying them.
