Step 1
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the 0.5 cup flour and 1 cup milk until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a paste, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 2
Remove from heat and stir in the 2 cups cheddar cheese, 0.25 cup dill, and 2 sliced scallions. Season with salt and pepper if you like. Let cool slightly until handleable, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Shape the mixture into 12 small logs or balls. Heat the 0.5 cup oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Fry the croquettes in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.
