- 1½ cups breadcrumbs
- 75 g Perfect Italiano Mozzarella cheese
- 75 g Perfect Italiano Parmesan cheese

Steps
Pinch Perfect Italiano Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses together to form 1cm diameter balls.
Blitz or finely chop ham, corn, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper together until you get a paste texture.
Adjust with more breadcrumbs if mixture is too moist.
Take about 1½ tbsps of paste and flatten with both palms.
Place 1-cm cheese ball into the centre and gently fold and enclose by rolling it smoothly between the palms to form a 4-cm diameter ball. Coat cheese balls with beaten egg, followed by breadcrumbs.
In hot pan, pan fry croquettes until nicely browned. Bite into the croquette and see the cheese ooze out!
