Croquettes With Plantain Pumpkin Seed Mozzarella And Pancetta Recipe By Tasty Food

CHICKEN CROQUETTES

Steps:

• For the croquette batter: In a heavy pot, heat the milk and chicken stock on the stove and then add the white pepper, fresh parsley and salt, if needed. In a separate heavy pot, melt the butter and add the minced celery. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 minutes. Pour in the hot milk and stock and stir until thickened and smooth. Fold in the chicken meat and allow to cool.
• Breading the croquettes: Shape 3-ounce portions of croquette batter in the shape of a cone and place on a tray lined with waxed paper. Next make an egg wash from the milk, eggs and salt. Dip the croquettes in the egg wash and then into the flour and let stand a few minutes. Finish breading by dipping the croquettes back in the egg wash and then rolling in breadcrumbs.
• For the chicken gravy: Melt the butter in a 1- or 2-quart saucepan, and stir in the flour. Pour in the stock and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and cook for 20 minutes. Add the fresh parsley, white pepper and salt, to taste, (if fresh stock was used).
• Cooking the croquettes: Fry the croquettes in a pot with salad oil or liquid shortening, heated to 350 degrees F, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain well and blot on paper towels. Place on a bed of mashed potatoes and top each croquette with chicken gravy.

MERGUEZ MEATBALLS WITH MOZZARELLA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add the ground meat, minced garlic, chopped parsley, harissa, salt, paprika, cumin, coriander, sumac, turmeric, fennel, black pepper, garlic powder, and cinnamon.
• Use your hands to combine mixture, making sure not to overwork the meat.
• Grab a small handful of meat and push half a mozzarella ball into the center. Use your hands to gently roll the meat into a ball, sealing tightly where the mozzarella ball is nestled. Repeat until you have around 16 meatballs.
• Over medium-high heat, add olive oil into a saute pan or skillet. Once the oil is hot, drop the meatballs in and leave room so that they are not sticking to each other. As they cook on the pan, sprinkle a pinch of salt on each side.
• Allow each side of the meatball to get a nice dark brown sear before using a spoon to turn them over. Repeat this process until you have even browning.
• Once the meatballs are seared perfectly all around, lower the heat and cover for a bit (about 2 minutes) to make sure they're fully cooked in the center.
• Garnish with chili flakes for an extra kick and chopped parsley and serve.
• Enjoy!

CROQUETTES WITH PLANTAIN, PUMPKIN SEED, MOZZARELLA AND PANCETTA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Boil the potato in one pot until completely soft/cooked through. Whilst the potato is boiling, boil the plantain pieces (skin on) in another pot until very soft (slightly overcooked). The plantain will become more yellow and begin to push out of the skins.
• Mash together the potato and plantain thoroughly in a bowl. Mix in the plain flour, then leave the mix to cool.
• Once cooled, take about a tablespoon of the mix and use your hands to roll it into a ball around 3.5-4 inches wide (adding or removing some of the mix as necessary).
• Use your finger or the end of a spoon or fork, to create a deep hole in the ball (around three quarters way through the ball) for the filling, making sure not to poke all the way through. Carefully stuff the hole with either pancetta or mozzarella.
• Take a little more of the mix to create a small 'lid' to cover the hole, then use your hands to carefully roll the ball again to re-shape it as necessary.
• Repeat to create around 8 pancetta balls, and 8 mozzarella balls.
• Use a spoon on your hands to cover each ball completely in the beaten egg, and then in the breadcrumb and pumpkin seed mix. Do this twice for each ball to ensure it is sufficiently coated.
• Set out the croquettes on a plate or tray ready to fry and heat the oil over a medium-high heat in a large frying pan.
• Test the oil is ready with one croquette first: it should begin to sizzle and fry immediately. If the croquette browns/blackens almost immediately, reduce the heat.
• Shallow fry the croquettes until they are a deep golden brown, rotating as necessary. Quickly and carefully remove the croquettes once browned with a spatula or tongs to avoid burning and set aside on a plate lined with kitchen towel (to help drain any excess oil).
• For the suya mayo, mix together the Japanese mayonnaise and suya spice thoroughly.
• Enjoy the croquettes very warm with the suya mayo as a dip.
