Recipe for Paco Roncero's Potato Croquette

Ingredients (quantities to taste based on the number of servings):
- Potatoes
- Eggs
- Flour
- Milk
- Onion
- Breadcrumbs
- Butter
- Salt
Procedure:
To prepare the bechamel sauce, begin by sautéing the onion with a little butter in a saucepan until it is golden. Add the flour, stirring constantly until it turns golden as well, making sure not to burn it. Gradually pour in the milk, continuing to stir until the sauce reaches the desired consistency, which should be neither too thick nor too runny.
Next, cube and fry the potatoes until they are golden and crispy. Fry two eggs as well, and then combine the bechamel sauce, fried potatoes, and eggs in a bowl, mixing thoroughly. Form the mixture into small balls, ensuring that each one is evenly shaped.
Once the croquettes are formed, coat each ball first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. This triple coating ensures a crispy exterior. Fry the croquettes in a pan with abundant oil until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
