Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the potatoes into quarters. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them until smooth and allow to cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, flour, and all the seasonings (salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chopped parsley). Mix until well combined.

Forming and Frying

  1. 4

    Shape the Croquettes

    Using your hands, take about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture and shape it into a small oval or ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

  2. 5

    Coat the Croquettes

    Roll each shaped croquette in breadcrumbs until fully coated.

  3. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  4. 7

    Fry the Croquettes

    Carefully add the croquettes to the hot oil in batches, frying them for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate and Serve

    Serve the potato croquettes hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!
