Paella Croquettes

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This a very tasty appetizer and if you roll them small enough -- you can get a good quantity out of the rice mixture. The croquettes do not roll up very easily and I was afraid they would fall apart in the oil, but they didn't and they turned out really well. I will definitely make them again, but I will need to add more bread crumbs or flour to the mixture as the recipe indicates. Made for the Tapas Party tag, January, 2012.
