Turkey Potato Croquettes

Stir the mashed potatoes and 1 whisked egg in a bowl until combined and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine the chopped turkey and shredded cheese stirring to combine.

Take 2 teaspoons of the turkey cheese mixture and form into 1 inch balls. You want to roll them tight so the turkey and cheese bind together.

Take 2 tablespoons of the potato egg mixture and form a patty in the palm of your hand, place a turkey cheese ball in the center and fold the potato mixture around the turkey cheese ball to make a larger ball.

Place the second whisked egg in a bowl and the breadcrumbs in a seperate bowl.

Roll each potato croquette gently into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs covering them completely.

Add the oil to a heavy bottomed pot over medium/high heat. The oil is hot enough if you put a few leftover breadcrumbs in and they sizzle immediately.

Add the croquettes to oil and fry for about 60 seconds, turning occasionally, until the outside is crispy. (Alternatively, you can bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.)

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the croquettes to the paper towel-lined plate and immediately season them with salt.

Serve with gravy or cranberry sauce.
