Our Family Recipe for Croquettes! Curry Flavored Version
This is one of the variation recipes from our croquette-loving family.
- If you're microwaving the potatoes, leave some space between them and the plastic wrap. Keep the wrap on while you're letting it rest.
- Shape the croquette while it's still warm, and coat once it has cooled down!
- You can use the curry powder as listed exactly in the recipe if you're serving this to adults. Adjust the amount when serving to little kids though, since the aftertaste is a bit spicy. For 6 servings. Recipe by Donpintan

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Boil the potatoes on the stovetop or in the microwave as described in Step 2. Mince the onions and carrots.
- 2
If you're using a microwave, peel off the skin, cut into quarters, and wash off with water. Put them into a microwave-safe container etc., place a plastic wrap on top, and heat for 15 minutes at 600W. Let it rest for 10 minutes afterwards.
- 3
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and sauté the ground meat without oil. Enough fat will come out of the meat.
- 4
Add the onions and carrots and keep sautéing. Add salt and pepper.
- 5
After about 3 minutes of sautéing, lightly stir the curry powder at the edge of the frying pan.
- 6
Add the water and ingredients marked ✩ and let it simmer until the liquid evaporates.
- 7
Mash the potatoes with a masher etc. while still warm.
- 8
Combine the mashed potatoes with the mixture from step 6 and mix well. Let the excess moisture to evaporate over heat. Be careful not to let it burn.
- 9
Let it cool by spreading it out in a shallow container. While still warm, divide and shape it into your preferred numbers/sizes and let it cool.
- 10
Coat with flour, egg, and panko in that order.
- 11
Deep-fry in oil.
- 12
It's done!
- 13
It's delicious while hot but it's also very tasty even after cooling so I recommend using it for bentos.

Low-Cal Aburaage Curry Croquettes Low-Cal Aburaage Curry Croquettes
I started making croquettes one hot day, and it was so hot that I didn't feel like deep frying, and coating each one with panko seemed like too much work.So I used some aburaage that I happened to have in the refrigerator Ever since then, these are the croquettes we have on hot days.I used a non-stick frying pan and didn't add oil!I used ground pork, but use whatever ground meat you like You can cut the calories even more (compared to deep fried croquettes) by adjusting what kind of filling you choose.If you don't like green peas, use frozen mixed vegetables instead.In Step 7, if you divide the potato mixture into two portions, you can enjoy 2 flavors - vegetable croquettes and curry flavored croquettes - at the same time.

Our Family Recipe for Croquettes: Western-Style (includes tips) Our Family Recipe for Croquettes: Western-Style (includes tips)
Homemade croquette is my mom's specialty. Nowadays I make it myself but I sometimes have a craving for my mom's croquette. This croquette is different from what I can recall with my mom's version, but I made it Western-style.Make sure to shape the croquettes while the mixture is still warm, since it'll be hard to do so once it's cool. However you can add the breadcrumb coating when the formed croquettes have cooled down completely. Anyone can fry these successfully if they're done a few at a time! For 12 barrel-shaped pieces.

Our Family Recipe for Coconut Milk Curry Our Family Recipe for Coconut Milk Curry
One day my husband said, "The curry we learned how to cook in school was delicious. I want to have some." I combined the curry I saw once in a magazine (that I vaguely remembered) with the curry I learned in school (again, a vague memory)... and miraculously it was delicious! I made it a lot for a while, so I looked over my notes and uploaded the recipe.This is just a basic version. I change up the vegetables I add every time. Try adding green peppers, carrot, celery or whatever you like.If you can't get cinnamon sticks, use powdered cinnamon. You can either add it to the spices rubbed into the chicken, or add it at Step 8 with the ● ingredients.The ◎ garlic, ginger, and red chili pepper don't have to be taken out if they've fallen apart in the curry.The yogurt mentioned in Step 15 is a peach, orange, pineapple and banana mix. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by Sabumochi -
Our Family's Sweet Potato Croquettes Our Family's Sweet Potato Croquettes
My mother used to make these quite often.At my parent's place, they preferred ground chicken, but our family prefers ground pork because my husband loves heavy meals.Try these out with ground chicken as well -- they'll turn out tasty and light.If you use katakuriko (corn starch), you'll be able to shape them without difficulty. Even children can help you because it's so easy to shape. The heart-shaped ones were made by my son. Your kids can make mini-sized croquettes that'll be perfect for bentos!If you make a lot and freeze before frying, they'll save you time the next time you want to make them. Recipe by Fujihime mama -
Our Family's Potato Croquettes Our Family's Potato Croquettes
These potato croquettes are actually cheap.Only spent ¥803 (¥198 for danshaku potato + ¥80 for onion + ¥200 for ground beef + ¥40 for tempura flour + ¥276 for 2 bags of fresh breadcrumbs + ¥9 for each soup stock cube) = ¥38 for one croquette (not counting the oil and pepper) to satisfy a growing child.If you're using ground meat with lots of fat, it gets too oily when you stir-fry, making it difficult to form the croquettes. Wipe the oil if necessary.Steam it unpeeled + use soup stock cubes to make it more delicious.The key for a crispy coating is readymade tempura flour + fresh panko bread crumbs + cooking in high temperature.

A Taste of Home: My Mom's Croquettes A Taste of Home: My Mom's Croquettes
I've been eating these croquettes all the time but the ones I make always taste a little different from my mother's. I was going to ask her how to make it, but I haven't still asked. She made it for me recently and I realized that the difference comes from the amount of potatoes used. I think my croquettes are now similar to the ones my mom makes?Make sure to extract the water from the ingredients. Shape the potato mixture while it's still hot and let it cool down before coating and dredging it. Recipe by Donpintan -
