Cromesquis à la Polonaise
Origin: Paris, France
Source: Auguste Escoffier, 1907
Ingredients
- rectangles of croquette mixture
- 1 per rectangle crêpe, unsweetened
- pâte à frire claire (light batter for deep frying)
Instructions
- Prepare rectangles of croquette mixture as described in the preceding recipe. Wrap each rectangle individually in an extremely thin unsweetened crêpe.
- Just before plunging the cromesquis into hot oil, dip the seam where the crêpe edges meet into light frying batter (pâte à frire claire). This seals the join and ensures the crêpe adheres during cooking.
- Deep fry the cromesquis until golden. Plate in the same manner as the preceding recipe.
