Super easy using the microwave. Delicious even without sauce! My family says it's tastier than the butcher's croquettes.
The story behind this recipe
I researched various croquette recipes and considered common ingredients, quantities, and easy-to-follow steps.
My family praised it as the best croquettes they've ever eaten.
Make a double batch and freeze the extras before frying for convenience. You can also make some into scoop croquettes.

Steps

1

Wash the potatoes well and cut them in half. Wrap them in plastic wrap and microwave at 500W or 600W for about 7-10 minutes until soft.
2

Sprinkle the ground meat with salt and fry it. Once the color changes, add the finely chopped onion, sugar, and soy sauce, and cook until the liquid evaporates.
3

Briefly dip the cooked potatoes in cold water, peel them, and mash them while mixing with the ground meat.
4

Mash the potatoes coarsely for a fluffy texture. (If you have time, let them cool thoroughly here for easier shaping.)
5

Shape into rounds or ovals as desired, and coat in flour, then beaten egg, and finally breadcrumbs.
6

Pour about 1 1/4 inches of oil into a pot or frying pan and heat to medium. Arrange the croquettes in the oil. Minimize touching them to avoid breaking the coating.
7

Fry until they turn a golden brown!
