Perfect Grilled Dutch Kroketten on the Arteflame Grill
Introduction:
Creating the most flavorful and visually stunning dishes is made easy with the Arteflame grill. The Arteflame sears meat at over 1,000°F for a steakhouse-quality sear and allows you to cook all your other food on its flat top griddle. This Dutch Kroketten recipe showcases the grill's versatility, providing a perfectly even sear without ever burning the food. Always remember to remove the food from the grill when the internal temperature is 15°F below the target, as it will continue to cook after removal.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked and shredded beef or chicken
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef or chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to form a roux and cook for 2-3 minutes. Gradually add the broth, whisking continuously until thickened. Stir in the shredded meat, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes until well combined. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
- Form the Kroketten: Once the filling is cooled, shape it into small logs or cylinders. Dip each kroket in beaten egg, then coat with breadcrumbs. Place them on a baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set. Alternatively, form the kroketten into patties as they will grill more evenly.
- Preheat the Grill: Fire up your Arteflame grill to medium-high heat to get it ready for grilling.
- Grill the Kroketten: On the flat top griddle of the Arteflame grill, heat the vegetable oil. Place the kroketten on the griddle and cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove the kroketten from the grill when they are crispy and golden. Let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Tips:
- Ensure the filling is completely cool before shaping the kroketten to maintain their shape.
- Adjust the heat zones on the griddle to cook the kroketten at the optimal temperature.
- Serve with mustard or a dipping sauce of your choice for added flavor.
