How to make cheese and potato croquettes

  • Wash and peel the potatoes, and cut to an even size.
  • Cook in salted water until soft. Drain.
  • Put a lid on the pan of the potatoes and place over a low heat to dry out, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
  • Place the potatoes in a food processor with the yolks, butter and seasoning.
  • Mix in the nutmeg, sherry, Parmesan cheese, mustard and parsley.
  • The potatoes should be like a very firm mash.
  • Overmixing will make them gluey, in which case some flour will have to be worked in by hand.
  • Check that the mix is seasoned well and mould into cylinder shapes, 5 x 2 inch.
  • Roll in seasoned flour. Dip in eggwash and coat with breadcrumbs.
  • Deep-fry in hot fat, 365 degrees F.
  • When golden, drain well and serve.
  • If you want to keep the croquettes for cooking later, or the next day, place them carefully on a tray, cover with plastic film and refrigerate.
