Croquettes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Potatoes

    Peel and chop the Yukon Gold potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mash and Mix

    In a large bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until smooth. Add the shredded aged cheddar, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Croquettes

    Shape the potato mixture into small balls or patties, about 1.5 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Prepare Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

  5. 5

    Bread the Croquettes

    Roll each potato ball first in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Return the breaded croquettes to the baking sheet.

  6. 6

    Fry the Croquettes

    In a deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the croquettes in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve hot with house-made ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
