Categories     Potato

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs cooked peeled potatoes (I nuke them)
1 egg
4 green onions, sliced thinly (white and green parts)
3/4 cup minced flat leaf parsley or 3/4 cup cilantro
1 cup kefalotiri or 1 cup parmesan cheese, or myzithra cheese
1/4 teaspoon pepper
flour (for dredging)
oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Rice the potatoes.
  • Add the egg, onions, parsley or cilantro, cheese and pepper.
  • Taste and add salt if not salty enough.
  • Combine well and refrigerate for 2 hours before proceeding with recipe.
  • Shape the potato mixture into'meatballs'.
  • Dredge in flour, flattening slightly, and fry in hot oil (we use olive oil in Greece, but vegetable oil can be used instead).
  • Drain on paper towels.
  • Serve hot or warm.
  • Note: Breadcrumbs can also be used to dredge the potato croquettes instead of the flour.
  • This results in a crisper exterior.

I thought the croquettes were a bit bland, so I added some extra seasoning.

I had a little trouble getting the croquettes to stay together at first, but after a few tries I got the hang of it.
