Ingredients
- 500 grams Russet potatoes
- 150 grams Diced cooked ham
- 60 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 120 grams Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 5 grams Salt
- 2 grams Black pepper
- 15 grams Chopped fresh parsley
- 40 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks. Bring a large pot of water to boil and add the potatoes. Cook them until they are tender, approximately 15 minutes.
Step 2
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, salt, and black pepper, then mash until smooth.
Step 3
Stir in the diced ham, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, and check the seasoning. Let the mixture cool slightly.
Step 4
Shape the mashed potato mixture into 8-10 small cylinder or oval shapes (about 60 grams each).
Step 5
Prepare three shallow bowls: beat the eggs in one, put the gluten-free flour in the second, and place the gluten-free breadcrumbs in the third.
Step 6
Dip each croquette in the flour, patting off the excess, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat evenly with breadcrumbs.
Step 7
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan to 180°C (350°F). Fry the croquettes in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Ensure not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 8
Remove the croquettes from the oil using a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels.
Step 9
Serve hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
