Mashed Potato Croquettes Recipes

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:

• Add milk, salt, pepper, chopped onion, beaten egg yolks and flour to mashed potatoes.
• Chill and then shape using an ice cream scoop.
• Dip in the beaten egg, then roll through bread crumbs.
• Fry each croquette in shallow oil until brown on all sides.
• Cook's Note: Cook in small batches, giving each croquette at least 2 inches of space around it to not overcrowd the pan. This prevents the croquettes from crumbling while frying.

Steps:

• Mix 2 large egg yolks, 2 cups cold mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, and 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour in a medium bowl. Roll into walnut-size balls; chill until cold, at least 2 hours.
• Beat 4 large eggs in a bowl; place 2 cups breadcrumbs in another bowl. Pour vegetable oil into a medium skillet to measure 1/2" (about 2 cups) and heat over medium-high until a pinch of breadcrumbs bubbles immediately when added. Dip potato balls in egg, then roll in breadcrumbs. Working in batches, fry, turning often, until golden brown and crisp, 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Stir Parmesan cheese into mashed potatoes.
• Add cream cheese, butter, onion soup mix and pepper; mix well.
• Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk, if mixture is dry.
• Shape mixture into 10 to 12 balls.
• Dip into the 2 beaten eggs; roll into the corn flakes.
• Place on greased baking sheet.
• Bake at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes or till hot and crisp.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the leek and cook until tender and translucent, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the chopped sage and 3 tablespoons of the flour, then continue to cook until the flour is completely absorbed into the butter mixture and lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. While continually stirring, gradually pour in the milk and continue to cook until a thick bechamel forms, about 1 minute more. Remove from the heat, then stir in the turkey, mashed potatoes, a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until completely cool, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set up a 3-stage breading station by placing the remaining 1/2 cup flour in a shallow bowl or baking dish, the eggs in a separate shallow bowl or baking dish and finally the panko in a third shallow bowl or baking dish. Season each with a pinch of salt and pepper. Using a 3/4-ounce cookie scoop, divide the chilled filling into about 18 pieces. Roll into uniform balls and/or 2 1/2-inch-long batons. Coat each piece in the flour, shaking the excess off, then dip in the egg to coat. Finally, dip and press into the panko, turning until evenly coated.
• Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to go 2 inches up the sides and insert a deep-frying thermometer. Set the oil over medium-high heat and bring to 350 degrees F. Working in 2 batches, deep-fry the croquettes until deep golden brown and heated through, about 2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with a pinch of salt. Fry the whole sage leaves until crisp, about 1 minute. Drain on the paper towel line plate as well. Serve with cranberry sauce and turkey gravy for dipping.

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until fork tender, and let cool for 20 minutes.
• In a large bowl, mash the potatoes. (For a creamier texture, use a potato ricer.) Add the Parmigiano cheese, chopped parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Add one egg and mix well, until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
• Grab a handful of mashed potatoes and press into logs that are 1 1/2-inches thick by 3 inches long. With your finger, create an indentation in the middle of the log and add a slice of mozzarella. Close up the logs and make sure the mozzarella is fully covered. Reshape if necessary.
• For the batter, dip potato logs in a beaten egg and cover with breadcrumbs.
• Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a large pot to 350 degrees F.
• Fry in the oil in batches until the potato croquettes are crispy and golden brown.
• Let drain on a paper towel lined plate, and serve warm.

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 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:

• Add milk, salt, pepper, chopped onion, beaten egg yolks and flour to mashed potatoes.
• Chill and then shape using an ice cream scoop.(skip this step if you are using left-overs that have allready been in the fridge).
• Dip in the beaten egg, then roll through bread crumbs.
• Fry each croquette in shallow oil until brown on all sides.
• Cook's Note: Cook in small batches, giving each croquette at least 2 inches of space around it to not overcrowd the pan. This prevents the croquettes from crumbling while frying.

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:

• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until golden, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain. Peel hot potatoes; place in bowl. Mash potatoes well. Cool to lukewarm. Mix in parsley, eggs, salt, pepper and onions. Cool completely.
• Place flour in dish. Using 1/4 cup potato mixture for each croquette, shape into 1/2-inch-thick patties. Lightly coat each with flour. Place on baking sheet. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
• Preheat oven to 300°F. Pour additional oil into large skillet to depth of 1/4 inch; heat over medium-high heat. Fry croquettes in batches until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Keep warm in oven.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine potatoes and enough cold water to fully submerge them. Bring to a boil. Season with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and boil until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain; let potatoes cool 5 minutes, then press through a ricer or colander and stir until smooth (or mash until smooth). Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.
• Stir egg yolks, scallions, lemon zest and juice, flour, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into mashed potatoes. Fold in salmon. Form mixture into golf-ball-size rounds, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick disks. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day.
• Whisk whole eggs in a shallow bowl and season with kosher salt and pepper. Place panko in another shallow bowl and season. Pour a scant 1/2 inch oil into a medium heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron. Heat over medium until oil shimmers and bubbles form instantly around a breadcrumb dropped in (350°F on a deep-fry thermometer). Working in batches, dip croquettes in egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl, then coat in panko, pressing to adhere.
• Fry, flipping once and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a level temperature, until crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet, then sprinkle with flaky salt; keep warm in a preheated 200°F oven while frying the rest. Serve warm, with dipping sauces.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, eggs, parsley, cheese, salt and pepper, bacon bits and onion flakes. Form mixture into patties, and dredge patties in the bread crumbs.
• Pour oil 1/2 inch deep in a large, heavy skillet. Heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry patties, flipping to fry them on both sides, until they are golden brown. Serve hot.

Steps:

• after soaking cod overnight, change water.
• place cod in pot with enough water to cover it and boil cod for 15-20 minutes.
• remove from stove top, drain, let it cool and flake.
• peel and boil the potatoes in pot with a bit of salt, drain potatoes, and mash.

• grab mixture with a tablespoon, with an other tablespoon grab same mixture working with tablespoons from back to front, until you get an oval shape patty.
• drop it into very hot oil.
• and fry until golden brown, turning patty to brown on both sides.
• remove from oil and place on paper towel to drain.
• Note: do NOT place more then 6 patty's into oil so not to cause oil to over flow.
