Fried Mashed Potato Croquettes Recipes

Steps:

• Mix mashed potatoes, egg, flour, and salt together in a bowl.
• Heat a thin layer of vegetable oil in a frying pan. Drop large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the frying pan. Flatten into a patties as you flip; cook until browned on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes per cake. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together mashed potatoes and parsley; season with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, place flour; season with salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, whisk egg with 1 tablespoon water. In a third shallow bowl, place 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs.
• Form potato mixture into 3/4-by-2-inch logs. Roll in flour, shaking off excess, dip in egg wash, then roll in breadcrumbs to coat. In a heavy medium saucepan, heat 1 1/2 inches vegetable oil over medium-high until hot. In batches, fry croquettes until golden brown on all sides, about 2 minutes per batch, turing as needed. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Place bread in the bowl of a food processor. Process until crumbs form, about 10 seconds. Transfer crumbs to a medium bowl; set aside. Line one baking sheet with parchment, and another one with a double thickness of paper towels; set both aside.
• In a small bowl, combine potatoes, herbs, egg, and flour using a fork or spoon. Season with salt and pepper. Using a spoon, scoop mixture into an egg-shaped piece. Using a second spoon, push shape into the bowl of bread crumbs. Roll to coat, and transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
• Place oil in a small deep saucepan. Heat over medium heat until a frying thermometer registers 350 degrees. Using slotted spoon, place five croquettes in oil. Cook until golden and puffed, turning once, 4 to 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining croquettes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, cut into chunks and add to a medium size saucepan.
• Cover with water and bring to boil.
• Reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Drain well, mash and let cool slightly.
• Transfer mashed potatoes to a mixing bowl and add nutmeg, Kosher salt, coarse black pepper and mix well to combine.
• Using about 2 large tablespoons of potato mixture for each croquette, roll into a 2 inch by 3/4 inch thick log and place on a tray.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or longer to firm up the rolls.
• In a mixing bowl, add flour, salt and pepper and mix well to blend.
• In a separate bowl, add bread crumbs, panko crumbs, garlic powder and mix well.
• In another bowl, whisk eggs with milk until fluffy.
• Roll each log in the flour mixture.
• Then dip the floured logs in the egg mixture.
• Roll the logs in the bread crumb mixture.
• Dip logs again in the egg mixture then roll again in the bread mixture so that each log is double crusted.
• In a medium size frying pan, heat oil on medium-high heat to about 350°F.
• Fry croquettes in batches of 6 for about 3 minutes or until golden brown, turning several times during cooking.
• Using tongs, remove croquettes onto paper towels to drain.
• Serve with sour cream or yogurt and a sprinkling of finely chopped green onions.
• NOTE: For those who prefer a spicier taste, add some cumin and curry powder of your choice.
• If you find that freshly ground nutmeg is too strong for you, leave it out of the recipe.

Steps:

• Combine mashed potatoes, Parmesan, bacon, 1 tablespoon parsley, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons flour, salt and pepper. Using 2 tablespoons or a small ice cream scoop form into balls then flatten slightly.
• In a pie plate combine the other egg with milk. Set up a breading station with one plate of flour, then the egg mixture then the bread crumbs and panko. Place croquettes in flour, dip in egg then roll in breadcrumbs.
• Heat canola oil to 360 degrees F and fry for about 4 minutes until browned on all sides. (You can also shallow fry these in a pan with about 1 inch of oil then flip them.)
• Place on a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with a bit of salt.
• In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, orange juice, remaining parsley, and salt and pepper. Serve with croquettes while they're hot.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a saucepan and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender enough to easily pierce with a fork. Drain and toss gently over low heat for a minute to completley dry out. Press them through a sieve or just mash with a potato masher until smooth. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix in the butter and egg yolk, then spread out on a tray to cool.
• Preheat the oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). The oil is the proper temperature when a cube of bread browns in about 15 seconds.
• In a large bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese and spinach. Blend in the mashed potatoes. On a floured surface, using floured hands, roll small handfuls of the mixture into cylinders about 3/4 inch thick and 2 1/2 inches long. Tap the ends to flatten.
• Season 1/2 cup of flour with salt and pepper and place on a tray. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and peanut oil. Place the bread crumbs into a separate shallow bowl. Roll the croquettes in seasoned flour, then dip into the egg and then coat with bread crumbs.
• Fry the croquettes a few at a time, so they have some room in between, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Carefully remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on crumpled paper towels.

Steps:

• Heat a heavy, thick frying pan until a droplet of water evaporates immediately if you flick it inches (DO NOT put any oil or fat of any sort in the pan, the potatoes WILL stick if you do).
• Tip in your mashed potatoes and spread out to cover the pan base.
• Cook on a medium heat and turn and shake occasionally.
• Turn over in parts (it isn't like an omelette, don't worry if it breaks).
• Keep frying until you have a solid crispy shell around it and a nice creamy center.
• Enjoy with a spicy tomato sauce or ketchup and mayonnaise.
