In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent.

5

Incorporate the chopped meat, potatoes, parsley, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper into the mixture.

6

Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.

7

Once cooled, shape the mixture into small balls or patties.

8

Dredge each croquette in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with bread crumbs.
