    List of Ingredients

    3 tablespoons butter
    1/4 teaspoon curry powder
    1/4 cup flour
    3/4 cup milk
    2 teaspoons prepared mustard
    1 teaspoon grated onion
    2 cups coarse ground fully cooked ham
    2/3 cup dry bread crumbs
    1 egg, beaten
    2 tablespoons water

    CHEESE SAUCE:
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 dash pepper
    1 1/4 cups milk
    1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese

    Recipe

    In a saucepan, melt butter; stir in curry powder and flour. Gradually add milk; cook and stir until bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat. Stir in mustard and onion; add ham and mix well. Cover and chill thoroughly. With wet hands, shape mixture into 10 balls. Roll balls in bread crumbs; shape each into a cone. Whisk together egg and water. Dip cones into egg mixture; roll again in crumbs.

    Heat oil in a deep-fat fryer to 365ºF. Fry croquettes, a few at a time, for 2 to 2-1/2 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels; keep warm. For the cheese sauce, melt butter in a saucepan; stir in flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk; cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Add cheeses; heat and stir until melted. Spoon over croquettes.
