POTATO CROQUETTES submitted by DONNA DELAURO
This is one of my favorite family recipes. I have been making them for about forty years. They are always a big hit at parties and holidays! I hope you enjoy making them as much as I do. This recipe will make about twenty-five medium size croquettes. You can use any kind of potato you like. Peel away the eyes and imperfections off 8 medium size potatoes leaving some of the skin on. Cut in cubes about 1 inch. Put in a saucepan covering the potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook for about 6-8 minutes so the potato is not hard but not mushy either Add 1 cup potato flakes and stir until well mixed and consistency is thick Transfer to a glass bowl and let cool for 15-20 minutes Add 1 egg 2 slices American cheese broken up into small pieces 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup bread crumbs 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
SIDES
1 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. pepper 1/4 tsp. garlic powder Mix until the mixture holds together to form croquette. If too loose add more bread crumbs. Roll in bread crumbs. Heat vegetable or canola oil in skillet or deep fryer until hot. Cook on all sides until golden brown. Serve hot or room temperature with marinara sauce for dipping. Add other ingredients if desired, like ham, chicken, spinach, or whatever you like. To make this gluten free use gluten free bread crumbs. Enjoy!!!
