  3. Season with salt, ground pepper, sugar, and nutmeg. Set aside to cool completely.
• Croquette
  1. Divide both skin (potato mixture) and filling (chicken ragout mixture) into 16 portions.
  2. Flatten a portion of skin, place a portion of filling at the center, gather the edges of the potato skin to wrap the filling, gently roll into a cylindrical shape.
  3. Coat with bread crumbs, then dip into lightly beaten eggs, and coat again with bread crumbs. Set aside.
  4. Repeat for the rest of skin and filling.
  5. Heat enough oil in a pot/wok for deep frying. Once the oil is hot (~ 170 Celsius/340 Fahrenheit), deep fry croquettes until golden brown. Serve immediately.
