Potatocroquettesdeepfried 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:

• 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:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan and add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by at least 1-1/2 inches. Add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to boil, cover partially, and cook over medium heat until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan. Dry the potatoes by shaking the pan over low heat for a few seconds until all visible moisture is gone.
• Press the potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer into a mixing bowl. Add the butter, egg yolks, and 1 tablespoon of flour. Mix well with a wooden spoon. Season generously with salt, white pepper and nutmeg. The mixture must be fairly dry or the croquettes will burst during frying.
• Spread the potato mixture evenly on a nonstick baking sheet and shape into a 10 x 5-inch rectangle that is no more than 1 inch high. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the mixture is quite firm, at least 1 hour.
• Prepare three bowls: In one, beat the egg whites until they are well mixed. Place the remaining 1 cup flour in the another bowl, and the bread crumbs in the third. Arrange in order: flour, egg whites, bread crumbs.
• Cut the potato mixture into small rectangles approximately 1 inch wide and 2 inches long. Use fingers and hands to shape them into cylinders. Dip each croquette, one at a time, first into the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg whites, and finally into the bread crumbs. Arranged the shaped and dipped croquettes on another baking sheet. At this point the croquettes can be refrigerated, covered, for several hours or overnight. In fact, they will be better if allowed to rest int he refrigerator until the following day. (They can also be wrapped in plastic and frozen for up to 2 months.).
• Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 380°F Add the croquettes in batches and fry until golden brown on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve. The finished croquettes can be kept warm in a preheated 300°F oven for up to 20 minutes, but it is best to serve them as soon as possible.

Steps:

• For the baked potato croquettes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wash and bake the potato on a rimmed baking sheet or large pot, until fork tender, about 45 minutes. Cool and put through a ricer in a large bowl. Add the butter, bacon, sour cream, milk, green onion, salt, pepper. Mix together and form 4 balls. Place 1 piece of cheese in the center of each ball.
• For the egg wash: Whisk the egg and milk together in a shallow bowl. Place the flour in a second shallow bowl. Roll the balls in the flour and then the egg wash, then again in the flour.
• For frying: Heat the canola oil to 350 degrees F in a deep fryer or large pot. Deep fry the croquettes in batches in the oil until golden brown and hot in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes.

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:

• 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:

• Generously cover potatoes with salted cold water (2 teaspoon for 4 quarts) in a large pot, then simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes and chill in a large bowl until cool, about 45 minutes.
• Mash potatoes, then stir in cheeses, onion salt, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and salt to taste. Stir in 1 egg.
• Form potato mixture into 24 oblong croquettes (about a scant 1/4 cup each). Lightly beat remaining 2 eggs in a shallow bowl and put bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip 1 croquette into egg, letting excess drip off, then roll in bread crumbs to coat. Transfer to a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining croquettes.
• Heat 1/2 inch oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Fry croquettes in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in 3-qt. saucepan; add enough water to cover. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 20 to 25 min. or until potatoes are tender. Drain potatoes; return to saucepan. Add cream cheese; mash with hand masher or beat with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Cool. Add egg yolks; mix well.
• Beat egg whites in shallow dish or pie plate until frothy; set aside. Place matzo meal in separate shallow dish or pie plate. With hands lightly sprayed with cooking spray, shape potato mixture into 16 ovals, using 1/4 cup of the potato mixture for each oval (croquette). Dip in egg whites, then in matzo meal, turning over to evenly coat both sides of each croquette with the matzo meal.
• Heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add croquettes; cook 3 to 4 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

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:

• In a large bowl, beat 1 egg. Add the beef, potatoes, onion, salt and pepper; mix well. Shape into 12 balls. Beat remaining egg; dip balls into egg, then roll in the cracker crumbs. Shape each ball into a cone. , In a Dutch oven or deep-fat fryer, heat 2 in. of oil to 375°. Fry croquettes, four at a time, for 2 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels.
