McKroket

I tried the McKroket today after reading somebody’s comments. I didn’t ask what it was I just ordered it and even after I tried it I still have no clue what a kroket is. I am too lazy to google it at the moment but it tasted mostly of Dijon mustered mustard with something that might have been cheese, meat, fish, chicken, mashed vegetables or tofu… I couldn’t figure it out.

at home my grandpa calls the potato chap (kroket).
for you who don’t know what potato chap is, it’s (kobat bo6a6)
any way since you’re too lazy to google it. i did that for you and got the following:
(it is a small fried food containing usually as main ingredients mashed potatoes, and/or minced meat (veal, beef, chicken, or turkey), and soaked white bread, egg, onion, spices and herbs, wine, milk, or any of the combination thereof, The croquette is usually shaped into a cylinder or disk, and then deep-fried.)

While you there mark .. could you pass by any grocery store and check if is it true that they sell drugs ( cocaine ) ?

I have heard its legal there .. !

Also .. there is a pizza resturant that sells pepperoni with weed .. !!

lol

Go back to FEBO Mark and ask for a “van dobben kroket”
The best there is…. with indeed a bit of mustard on the side

As well as the “bitterballen”; sort of a kroket but then small and round. Available on any good terrace and the best with some dutch cheese and a beer…

….sorry getting carried away now…

Maaike is right. Def try the van Dobben Kroket @ a proper Febo. If you like the kroket, you’d def like the Frikadel as well. Try it.

As to the exact ingredients of the original Kroket and Frikadel: the Dutch are very efficient and economic and they do not waste anything. All meat left-overs (read organs, intestines etc) are processed in preparing these delicious krokets.

O.T.
@ mark… did you do the ad on the scarf?
i think it’s “valentino” not valantino, please correct me if i’m wrong.

I tried this thing at the Schipol airport on my way back to the US. All I can say is DONT EAT THIS! This glob o goo made me so sick I thought my stomach flipped over. I still don’t know what was in it, but it sort of looked and tasted like a fried blob of cream of mushroom soup. Avoid this disaster on a bun and stick with the chicken nuggets.

How can one say NOT to try it? The entire population eats it without problems and even people from abroad often like it.
A proper kroket is made with veal/beef. Of course there are variaties with other kinds of meat, but people may get the impression that there are all kinds of different meats in one and the same kroket.

An ordinary kroket as meant here is not made with cheese or potatoes, but with a roux/ragoût.
