Minced Beef Croquettes image

This came out of a small Dutch cookbook that my brother sent me from Australia. I remember my mother making these, but it had been years since I'd had them. When I got the booklet, I tried it, and it was loved by all. It takes a bit of work, but is delicious. You can substitute any kind of meat. This is great for leftovers!
