This year Valentines Day falls on a weekday, and my boyfriend hates chocolates, and I was at a loss for what to do... So I figured, why not make croquettes?! lol. It took a lot of effort to make fried food on a weekday, but I gave it my all! My boyfriend was happy with the end result These croquettes were made with spring in mind. I was actually going to make them with broccolini, but they were sold out that day, so I used broccoli instead...You can use both the stems and florets of the broccoli. Using 50 g each of the stems and florets of the broccoli will improve the color and texture of the croquettes. Recipe by ochikeron

I made these for my husband, who loved bechamel sauce based dishes.If you poke each croquette with a toothpick, they say that steam is let out and the croquettes won't burst. (See Satoka-san's.) I did an experiment, poking half of the croquettes and not poking the other half, and I can report that the un-poked ones will reliably burst. If you leave the croquettes in the frying oil for too long, they will develop small fissures on the surface and the filling will leak out eventually. So don't fry the croquettes for a long time at a low temperature; just fry them briefly and take them out quickly and they'll be fine! As long as they are about as browned as the ones in the photo (they're still a little pale) and crispy on the surface, take them out right away. For 16 croquettes. Recipe by Maane

I wanted to make some creamy croquettes stuffed with corn.Don't forget to use a heatproof container when heating the panko breadcrumbs. The plate will crack otherwise.The mixture is loose and difficult to shape, so it's easier to make small patties. Recipe by 1630412.

I had a bbq over the weekend and made some mashed potatoes as a side dish. Frequently, I cook too much food because I feel guilty about leaving hot coals on the grill. I don’t like eating the same thing over and over, so I made some croquettes to give these mashed potatoes a new lease on life.

Vegan, healthy and easy to prepare for a quick snack or as an party appetiser as well.Watch full recipe video at: https://youtu.be/B-oaB-nGTZM

I wanted to use up some crab meat.When adding the flour and milk to the pan, keep on stirring constantly. This way, you can avoid the sauce from burning or forming lumps.I divided the filling into 8 portions, but they are easier to fry if you form them into small shapes, and are less liable to burst in oil. In addition, if you fry the croquettes after breading them while the filling is still cold, they're also more likely to burst in the oil. So let them warm up at room temperature after coating them. You only have to fry the croquettes very briefly. For 8 croquettes. Recipe by Minrin

I wanted to make cream croquettes easily. These have a different yet still delicious flavor compared to potato only or bechamel sauce only croquettes.If you want croquettes that are a little bit more floury, increase the amount of potatoes used. If you like creamier croquettes, increase the amount of milk. (You can increase it to 120 to 130 ml and still form the croquettes. Coat with plenty of flour, then coat right away with egg and breadcrumbs. If you just can't form them though, put the filling in the refrigerator or freezer for a while until it stiffens up, then form it. Try forming it into small croquettes, which will be easier to handle.) For 8 croquettes. Recipe by Masacchi

I've found several recipes for cream croquettes here, even tried making a few, but I've had to make my own since I've had to make way too many adjustments to the existing recipes I've found to accommodate our tastes. 🇯🇵🦀

I got a lot of potatoes (the Kita Akari variety) as a gift.It's not runny like cream croquettes, so it's easy to form. I recommend you use the dense and fluffy "Kita Akari" potatoes from Hokkaido. If you'd like, it's also good to add bacon and tuna during Step 2! Recipe by Umemikkii

It's based on tips I saw on TV.I assure you really, it's foolproof!Water from boiling maitake mushrooms = boosts the umami of crabmeat. Aluminum foil cups = shapes the filling. Also a good heating conductor. Toothpick = allows steam to escape, preventing any bursting. That's what I heard.You can also use shrimp instead of crabmeat Try adding the shrimp before adding white wine in step 1. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Satokan
