Potato croquettes are the kind of food that I always tend to order at restaurants, but they are actually very easy to make at home. And they’re much better that way! They come out of the fryer piping hot and extra crispy, and you can also customize the filling exactly how you like it.
While I will show you how I make the mashed potato filling below, this is something you could even make anytime you have leftover mashed potatoes. It’s a great way to make something new out of leftovers you already have, especially around Thanksgiving time.
Potato croquettes are traditionally deep fried, which is how I cook them here. I used to have a plug-in deep fryer, but now I just use a dutch oven or heavy stockpot to fry them right on the stove, checking the temperature with a thermometer.
While I do not have an air fryer and thus have not tested it, I think there’s a shot these could be good if made with that method. However, I do not suggest baking these in the oven, as they won’t be crispy enough. If you are concerned about the health factor for deep frying, use a healthy type of fat such as tallow or duck fat, which will taste amazing too. Read More...
