Ingredients

2 cups chopped, cooked chicken
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
cayenne pepper to taste
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon onion juice
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup bread crumbs
------------------------------
Sauce:
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
curry powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Mix together chicken, salt, celery salt, pepper, lemon juice, onion juice, parsley, and enough of the cooled Sauce to keep mixture soft but stiff enough to hold its shape. Chill mixture; then shape into 8 croquettes. Heat vegetable oil to 375°–385°. Dip croquettes into beaten eggs, roll in bread crumbs, and fry for 2–4 minutes. Serve croquettes with hot cream Sauce.

Sauce:
Melt butter in a small heavy saucepan. Stir in flour. Blend well, cooking slowly over low heat. Slowly stir in chicken stock and cream. Stirring constantly, bring mixture slowly to a boil and cook for about 2 minutes or until Sauce has thickened. Season Sauce to taste with curry powder and salt and pepper. Cool one cup of the Sauce and hold the remaining cup warm, covered.
