Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons milk
salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon chopped green onion (optional)
2 egg yolks, beaten
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups mashed potatoes
1 egg, beaten
sifted dried breadcrumbs
oil, enough to fill pan 1/2-inch

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.
