Italian Rice Croquettes
Per serving
Another from a recipe card library of long ago, crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, what more could you ask for. Use Italian rice for best results or at the very least a medium-grain rice. Anything less will compromise the taste and texture of the croquettes.
