Croquetas de chorizo is a traditional croquette variety. It's usually made with a combination of chorizo, butter, flour, milk, nutmeg, eggs, breadcrumbs, and olive oil. The chorizo is chopped and fried over medium heat. It is then shortly simmered with a bechamel sauce consisting of flour, butter, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.

The mixture is chilled overnight, shaped into croquetas, dipped in eggs, rolled in breadcrumbs, and then fried in hot olive oil until golden brown.
