Ingredients

  • 4 medium Russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 quarter cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 cup White rice flour
  • 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice russet potatoes. Place them in a large saucepan, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan. Add the unsalted butter and mash until smooth.

Step 4

Mix in the shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 5

Once cooled, beat one of the eggs in a small bowl and add it to the potato mixture. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Shape the potato mixture into small, cylindrical logs, about 3 inches long.

Step 7

Set up a breading station with three plates or shallow bowls. Place white rice flour in the first, beat the remaining egg in the second, and put gluten-free breadcrumbs in the third.

Step 8

Roll each croquette first in white rice flour, then dip in beaten egg, and finally coat with gluten-free breadcrumbs. Repeat until all croquettes are coated.

Step 9

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat. The oil should reach about 350°F (175°C).

Step 10

Fry the croquettes in batches, carefully lowering them into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Step 11

Remove the croquettes with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Step 12

Serve the gluten-free potato croquettes hot, optionally with a dipping sauce of your choice.
