Preparation

In a bowl, mix the shrimp with the potato, the Parmesan cheese, the garlic, the onion, the egg, the bread crumbs, salt, and pepper, and form the balls with your hands. Place a cube of cream cheese in the center and finish shaping them.

Pass the croquettes through flour, egg and corn flakes.

In a pot with hot oil, fry the coquettes until browned and drain on absorbent paper to remove excess fat.

For the sauce, roast the chiles, the onion and the garlic in a comal. Blend with evaporated milk, cream cheese and cilantro.

In a pot cook the sauce for 10 minutes or until thick, season with salt and pepper.

Serve on a think layer of mirror and place the croquettes. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and enjoy.
