Croquettes:
Thoroughly blend the first 6 ingredients; chill. Shape the ham mixture into cones, rolls, or balls, using about ¼ c per croquette. Roll croquettes in bread crumbs, then in egg and again in breadcrumbs; let stand for 20 minutes or until coating is dry. Fry in a deep fryer until golden brown (about 3 minutes). Drain.

Sauce:
In a small saucepan, combine sour cream, minced onion, prepared mustard, salt, and pepper. Heat over low heat.

Serve croquettes with creamy mustard sauce.

Variations:
1. Instead of ham, use turkey. For a sauce over the turkey croquettes I have found that cream of chicken soup (slightly thinned) is good.

2. Instead of ham, use roast beef. For a sauce over the beef croquettes use cream of mushroom soup with extra mushrooms added, or the above creamy mustard sauce.
