1 Video | Photo: Potato Croquettes Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped green onion
- 2 egg yolks, beaten
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 cups mashed potatoes
- 1 egg, beaten
- Sifted dried bread crumbs
- Peanut oil, enough to fill pan 1/2-inch
Directions
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.

Terrific way to use leftover mashed potatoes. I used seasoned panko bread crumbs, which gave them a very crispy coating. I fried the croquettes in canola oil (a little healthier. Once I finished, I reheated them all at 325 degrees for 10 minutes in the oven. They were a hit with my family.

These were very good, i used a shallot instead of green onion and put more in, plus cheese would have added some flavor but still very good

Wow - THIS IS A KEEPER! I made a few modifications after reading the reviews. I used 3 finely chopped green onions, 2 finely chopped garlic cloves. I also added about 1/2 cup of some leftover whole milk ricotta cheese to the potato mixture as well. Used Panko bread crumbs seasoned with S&P and parmesan cheese. OMG. Will definely make these again whenever we have leftover mashed potatoes. Thanks Paula.
