Croquettes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the shrimp until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat, chop into small pieces, and let cool.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix the cooled mashed potatoes, crab meat, chopped shrimp, beaten egg, green onions, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  4. 4

    Form the Croquettes

    Shape the mixture into small patties or balls, about 2 inches in diameter. Roll each croquette in bread crumbs to coat evenly.

  5. 5

    Fry the Croquettes

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