Turkey Potato Croquettes

Instructions

1
|
Stir the mashed potatoes and 1 whisked egg in a bowl until combined and set aside.
2
|
In a separate bowl, combine the chopped turkey and shredded cheese stirring to combine.
3
|
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.
4
|
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.
5
|
Place the second whisked egg in a bowl and the breadcrumbs in a seperate bowl.
6
|
Roll each potato croquette gently into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs covering them completely.
7
|
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.
8
|
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.)
9
|
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the croquettes to the paper towel-lined plate and immediately season them with salt.
10
|
Serve with gravy or cranberry sauce.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Chill Before Frying 🧊
    Refrigerate your formed croquettes for at least 2 hours before frying to prevent them from falling apart and ensure a crispy exterior with a creamy center.
  • Double-Bread for Extra Crunch 🍞
    Dip croquettes in egg wash, then breadcrumbs, then egg wash again, and finally breadcrumbs once more for an exceptionally crispy golden coating that stays intact.
  • Season Your Gravy Base 🫕
    Mix your leftover gravy directly into the mashed potatoes before forming croquettes for enhanced flavor and moisture that binds the turkey, potatoes, and cheese together perfectly.
  • Oil Temperature is Critical 🌡️
    Maintain oil at 350°F (175°C) for optimal results—use a thermometer to prevent oil that's too cool (soggy croquettes) or too hot (burnt outside, cold inside).
  • Add Umami with Cheese & Herbs 🧀
    Mix sharp cheddar or parmesan with fresh thyme or sage into your potato mixture to elevate the flavor profile and add depth to your leftover ingredients.
