- With 1/2 measure cup, take up combined mixture into hands and roll onto cornflake crumbs (on flat tray) like small sausages.
- NOTE: If you place mixture between hands (that look like they are praying), roll back and forth to make it easier to evenly roll; tap both side to square out.

- NOTE: Make sure croquettes are nicely covered all over.
- PREHEAT oven 210C; place baking paper on flat tray; place croquettes and lightly oil spray one side.
