🥗 Ingredients (10 items)

Method 4 Steps

  1. 1

    Drain and thoroughly mash the potatoes, then add the cream, 1 egg, grated cheese, breadcrumbs, and seasonings. The mixture should be firm; add more breadcrumbs if necessary.

  2. 2

    Leave to cool, then shape the mixture into croquettes (finger-shaped).

  3. 3

    Prepare three plates: one with flour, one with a beaten egg, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip each croquette first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs. Ensure they are well coated.

  4. 4

    Shallow-fry the croquettes in vegetable oil, turning regularly until golden brown. Alternatively, deep-fry them. Once fried, drain well on paper towels and serve hot.
