Ingredients
- 600 g potatoes, steamed and mashed
- 100 g beef bacon, chopped and fried
- 100 g mozzarella, diced
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 150 g breadcrumbs
- Salt, pepper and nutmeg
- Oil for frying
Method
- Mix the mashed potato with flour, beef bacon, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Flatten a spoonful, place a cube of mozzarella in the middle, and seal it completely.
- Chill for at least 20 minutes. Cold croquettes do not burst in the oil.
- Roll in beaten egg, then in breadcrumbs.
- Fry at 170 °C until golden, about 3 minutes.
- Drain on a rack and serve warm while the cheese is still molten.
Tips
- Leaking cheese almost always means a poor seal or no chilling.
- Croquettes freeze well once breaded, and fry straight from frozen.
