5 Tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour
1 c half-and-half
1/4 tsp poultry seasoning
1/4 tsp hot paprika
1/4 tsp ground himalayan sea salt
freshly ground black pepper, to taste and divided (i always use mixed peppercorns)
1 c cooked turkey, finely chopped
1/2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
3 1/2 c canola oil or as needed, for frying
1 c panko breadcrumbs, ground
1 large free-run egg, lightly beaten
2 Tbsp milk

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan over medium-heat, add butter and when sizzling, add onion and celery; sauté for 1 minute. Add mushrooms and sauté for 2 minutes. Add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour in milk, add poultry seasoning, hot paprika, salt, and freshly ground black pepper; stir well and cook until the sauce thickens about 1 minute. Turn off the heat and add turkey and parsley; stir well. Transfer to a bowl and let cool off for 5 minutes before covering and chilling for 5 hours.
  • 2. In a pot over medium heat, add oil and bring to 365ºF. Meanwhile, divide turkey mixture into 8 balls; set aside.
  • 3. In a shallow plate, add breadcrumbs and season with black pepper; stir to mix. In another shallow plate, combine egg with milk; beat well. Roll each croquette into breadcrumbs then egg mixture and again in breadcrumbs.
  • 4. Working in batches, carefully place them in hot oil and fry for 3 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve with gravy or cranberry sauce along with mashed potatoes and veggies. Makes 8 croquettes

These turkey croquettes were a bit of a disappointment. They were dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't turn out well.
