1

Make a thick béchamel sauce: melt the butter, add the flour, then pour in the hot milk little by little. Stir in the cubed Herve cheese and mix until completely melted.

2

Spread the mixture onto an oiled baking tray to a thickness of two centimetres. Cover and leave to set in the fridge for at least 2 hours, until it is completely firm.

3

Cut into regular rectangles. Dip them successively in the beaten egg then in the breadcrumbs, twice, to obtain a well-sealed coating that will not open up during frying.

4

Fry the croquettes in oil at 180°C for three minutes until golden brown. Drain them and serve with a small pot of syrup Sirop de Liège for dipping.
