KOROKKE (JAPANESE POTATO AND GROUND MEAT CROQUETTES)

Steps:

• Put potatoes in a saucepan and add water to cover the potatoes sufficiently. Turn the heat on high and bring to a simmer.
• Cook potatoes until a bamboo skewer or a thin knife can get through to the centre of the potatoes easily. This will take 15-40 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes (note 5).
• When the potatoes are cooked, drain into a colander. Peel the potatoes immediately and place them into the saucepan just emptied. It is very hot so use a cloth or layers of kitchen paper to hold the potatoes.
• Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes mostly but leaving some tiny chunks of potatoes.
• While boiling potatoes, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a fry pan over medium high heat. Add onion and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and soft (about 3-5 minutes). Add pork, salt & pepper and cook, breaking it up as you go until browned and cooked through.
• Add the cooked mince to the potatoes in the pot (discard oil if accumulated in the fry pan), then the Korokke Flavouring ingredients. Mix well (note 6).
• Divide the potato mixture into 12 equal balls. Flatten them and shape into oval patties, about 2cm/¾" thick.
• Place flour, egg and breadcrumbs in a shallow plate or bowl individually.
• Coat each patty with flour, egg, then breadcrumbs.
• Heat oil in a deep fry pan over medium heat. Fry the patties for 1-2 minutes until the breadcrumbs become golden brown. You can fry more than one patty at a time but do not overcrowd the fry pan.
• Serve immediately with shredded cabbage with a stem of parsley leaves, accompanied by tonkatsu sauce.

Steps:

• Heat water in a pot to a simmer, then add the potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and stir.
• Cover and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, until a fork can easily pierce the potatoes.
• Dry the potatoes on a towel, allowing them to steam to remove excess moisture, then transfer to a large bowl.
• Mash the potatoes until no large chunks remain.
• Add the ham, cheese, onions, the other teaspoon of salt, pepper, and milk.
• Mix until evenly incorporated.
• Shape the potato mixture into 2-inch (3cm) discs.
• Separate the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs into separate bowls.
• Dredge the croquettes into the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip them into the eggs, and then coat them evenly in the bread crumbs.
• Heat oil in a pot to 350°F (180°C).
• Fry 2-3 croquettes at a time until golden brown, then drain on a rack or paper towels with a sprinkle of salt.
