Either works. The recipe calls for prepared or ready-made kroketten, but homemade croquettes work equally well—just ensure they're hot before assembling.
Dutch yellow mustard is the classic choice, though any mustard you prefer works. Apply it generously for authentic flavor.
The recipe suggests 1–2 croquettes per sandwich. One is a light lunch; two makes it heartier and more filling.
No toasting is mentioned in the recipe. A soft, untoasted white roll is traditional and helps contain the hot croquette without crumbling.
Assemble just before serving so the roll stays soft and the croquettes remain hot. Prepare components separately and combine at the last moment.
