Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Thoroughly grease 6 individual ramekins or custard cups with 1 tablespoon of the butter.

Mix gently with a fork.

Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Divide the mixture among the buttered cups and pack it down slightly.

Cool for 5 to 10 minutes.

The croquettes can be unmolded, right side up, or served in the ramekins.

Top each croquette with sour cream and caviar, or simply garnish with lemon.
