Instructions:

Finely grate the cheese. Add the whipped cream to the milk. Put the butter in a saucepan. It must not be allowed to brown. Add the flour and let it swell in the butter for ½ to 1 min. until it bubbles. It should not take on color. Extinguish with the liquid. Since it boils up on the spot, you have to stir heartily with a whisk from the beginning. After boiling, do another 5-10 min on lowest heat until flour taste dissipates. Gradually mix in cheese, seasoning with salt, pepper and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Place the croquette mixture in a large enough bowl and cool completely in a water bath or refrigerator.

Pour the eggs into a deep dish, add a tablespoon of water for each egg and stir through. put the breadcrumbs into another dish and form cam-shaped croquettes with two tablespoons dipped in cold water before each new croquette. Pull each croquette first through the egg, then roll through the breadcrumbs.

Repeat the breading from the beginning.

If necessary, chill again for a maximum of 1 hour. Just before serving, fry in deep fat at 180 degrees until golden brown.

Remove and drain on paper towels.

Finally, briefly fry the parsley, also drain well and bring to the table with the croquettes on the spot. Serve with salad and a dry white wine.
