Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 eggs
1 mozzarella ball, cut into thin strips
1 cup dried bread crumbs
Extra-virgin olive oil, for frying

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.

These were a bit too expensive to make. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These potato croquettes were a hit at my dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the cheese filling was perfectly gooey. I will definitely be making these again.
