Steps:
- In your food processor add celery, carrots and onion and pulse till finely minced
- In the food processor add your turkey and pulse until finely chopped. (use a mix of dark and white meat)
- In a saute pan melt butter and add finely minced celery, carrots, and onion. Saute until softened (3-5 minutes) Allow to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, add turkey, stuffing cubes, sauteed celery, onions, carrots, and poultry seasoning. Mix all the ingredients together.
- Add 1 cup of chicken stock and two lightly beaten eggs and mix together. Gradually add more chicken stock as needed. You want the mixture to resemble stuffing consistency. **Don't let it get too wet. It will continue to absorb the liquid as it sits in your refrigerator setting up but it still needs to be shaped so it needs to have a formable consistency.
- Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
- After mixing all ingredients together fully, refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow mix to set up .
- After the mix has set up form into cone-shaped croquettes
- Dredge the croquettes in flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Dip the floured croquette into the egg wash (2 eggs, ½ cup of milk).Coat the egged croquette with seasoned bread crumbs.
- Saute croquettes in olive oil, turning until all sides have been lightly browned.
- Place croquettes you are going to serve into a 350-degree oven for 15-20 minutes until fully heated. (minimum 165 degrees internal temperature)
- Freeze the remainder to use another day!
- Serve Croquettes with sides of your choice and your favorite turkey gravy and enjoy!

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the leek and cook until tender and translucent, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the chopped sage and 3 tablespoons of the flour, then continue to cook until the flour is completely absorbed into the butter mixture and lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. While continually stirring, gradually pour in the milk and continue to cook until a thick bechamel forms, about 1 minute more. Remove from the heat, then stir in the turkey, mashed potatoes, a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until completely cool, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, set up a 3-stage breading station by placing the remaining 1/2 cup flour in a shallow bowl or baking dish, the eggs in a separate shallow bowl or baking dish and finally the panko in a third shallow bowl or baking dish. Season each with a pinch of salt and pepper. Using a 3/4-ounce cookie scoop, divide the chilled filling into about 18 pieces. Roll into uniform balls and/or 2 1/2-inch-long batons. Coat each piece in the flour, shaking the excess off, then dip in the egg to coat. Finally, dip and press into the panko, turning until evenly coated.
- Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to go 2 inches up the sides and insert a deep-frying thermometer. Set the oil over medium-high heat and bring to 350 degrees F. Working in 2 batches, deep-fry the croquettes until deep golden brown and heated through, about 2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with a pinch of salt. Fry the whole sage leaves until crisp, about 1 minute. Drain on the paper towel line plate as well. Serve with cranberry sauce and turkey gravy for dipping.

TURKEY CROQUETTES
This is a great recipe to use up leftover turkey or chicken. It does not taste anything like leftovers. Makes about six 2-inch croquette balls. Definitely need to double or triple recipe for large groups as I can eat 2 croquettes easily.

Steps:
- For croquettes: In a large bowl, add all of croquette ingredients and combine to distribute ingredients thoroughly; refrigerate for 30 minutes (or longer) before using.
- Heat 2 tblsps olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Using a tablespoon (dipped in water), scoop out rounded spoonfuls of the croquette mixture and, using another spoon, push the mixture into the hot skillet; continue until you have filled the skillet with turkey croquettes; fry croquettes 5-6 minutes per side, until dark golden-brown; you may need to reduce heat slightly; remove as they are done to a glass baking dish; you will need to fry up in about 2 batches (maybe just into a third, depending on how big your skillet is); keep croquettes warm in a preheated oven while you make up the sauce.
- For creamy-mushroom sauce: Increase heat under skillet used for cooking croquettes (do not clean it out in any way!) to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms (do no add any more fat); allow the mushrooms to release some of their liquid and stir up tasty browned bits that are left in the pan from cooking the croquettes; add garlic and sauté mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid they have let off has evaporated, about 9-10 minutes; add cream and cook until cream has thickened, about 10 minutes; pour sauce over turkey croquettes, sprinkle with minced fresh parsley and serve with hot buttered rice or noodles; this will make just enough sauce to coat croquettes; if you like loads of sauce, use more mushrooms and cream.

DUTCH KROKETTEN (CROQUETTES)
Another way to prepare Dutch Meat Croquettes other than with fresh breadcrumbs or potato. Equally delicious! If you make these into little crumbed balls (called bitterballen), you can eat them, dipped in mustard, as an appetiser with pre-dinner drinks.

Steps:
- If using left-over chicken or turkey, chop it finely and set aside. Continue with the recipe from Step 3, using stock to make the sauce rather than water, and add the chicken or turkey to the sauce at Step 6.
- If using veal or beef, season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the veal or beef, wine, onion, clove, bay leaves, nutmeg or mace, parsley, thyme, lemon zest or juice and water. (Use chicken stock if you have chosen to use chicken or turkey.) Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes to an hour. By this time the meat should be tender (or if using poultry, the stock will be bursting with flavor).
- Strain the stock and reserve, along with the meat. Finely chop or cut the meat into into small pieces.
- Melt the remaining butter in the pan, stir in the flour and keep stirring for a few minutes on low heat. Don't let it brown. Slowly and gradually add the stock and cook over moderate heat, stirring until the sauce is smooth and thick. Add more flour, or corn starch to thicken the sauce if necessary. Cool slightly and add the 3 egg yolks and mix well (reserve the whites for later).
- Add the veal, beef, chicken or turkey, mix well and season to taste. The mixture should be thick and stiff by this time.
- Set the mixture aside to cool thoroughly. When ready, cut or separate the stiff, thick mixture into rolls about 1.5" thick and about 3" long.
- Spread the crumbs on a clean, dry chopping board. Slightly beat the eggwhites in a deep plate until just incorporated. Roll the croquettes through the breadcrumbs, then through the egg whites and again through the crumbs. (Make sure that the second coating of crumbs is even and thick and no meat mix sticks out, otherwise the croquettes may burst when being deep fried).
- Deep fry the croquettes in batches of four or five for about 4 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Drain on absorbent paper.
- Serve hot, with French fries or fresh chunks of bread. The best way to season is to slather with mustard, as the Dutch do!

Steps:
- In a small sauté pan over moderate heat, toast the bread crumbs until golden and crunchy, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool.
- In a small bowl, beat together the egg and water.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, stuffing, and turkey. Using your hands or a spoon, shape the mixture into 2-inch-long, oblong-shaped croquettes (you should have about 24 croquettes) and transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Working with 1 croquette at a time, dredge them in the egg-water mixture, letting the excess drip off, then dredge them in the bread crumbs, and return them to the rimmed baking sheet.
- In a large skillet, over moderately high heat, warm 2 tablespoons of the oil. Working in batches, pan-fry the croquettes, turning them occasionally, until crispy on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes total. Repeat with the remaining croquettes, wiping the pan clean and adding 2 tablespoons of the oil to the pan between batches. DO AHEAD: The croquettes can be prepared ahead and frozen, well wrapped in foil, for up to 3 months. To reheat: Bake the frozen croquettes on a large baking sheet in a 475°F oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove the croquettes from the oven for about 5 minutes to let the interiors thaw, then return them to the oven to finish baking for another 2 minutes.
- Serve hot with cranberry sauce and/or warm gravy.

TURKEY CROQUETTES WITH CREAM SAUCE
This is basically my dad's recipe, which I quantified with exact measurements, and the addition of a few seasonings that I like. It's a great way to use up turkey leftovers in a more sophisticated dish. I mince the turkey meat in my food processor first, then measure out the amount required.

Steps:
- In large saucepan,melt butter. Whisk in flour; add milk and broth slowly and whisk to avoid lumps. Add nutmeg, black pepper, sea salt, and lemon juice. Thicken this cream sauce over low heat, then remove from heat to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the minced turkey with 1 cup of the cooled cream sauce, grated onion, poultry seasoning, italian seasoning, and hot sauce. The mixture should just hold together. Add salt and pepper to taste and chill 15 minutes.
- While turkey is chilling, add thawed package of peas to the rest of the cream sauce. Cover and simmer on very low heat.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- With wet hands form the individual croquettes. I use a 1/4 cup scoop per croquette. Form a ballish shape; roll lightly in flour, then in beaten egg (with just a little water) and roll in breadcrumbs. Form the shape of a large gumdrop or "haystack" and place on a cookie sheet coated with non-stick spray.
- Bake croquettes in middle rack of the oven approximately 25 minutes. Serve hot with cream sauce on top (about 2-3 per person) and a dash of paprika.
- NOTE: Extra peas and cream sauce can be used as an elegant vegetable dish the next day by adding cooked baby carrots and pearl onions.

Steps:
- To make the croquetas, melt the butter in a medium saucepan and gently fry the onion for 3 mins or until lightly coloured. Stir in the flour and cook for 30 secs. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly, and cook over a low heat for 5 mins until thick and glossy. Stir in the ham, cheese, mustard and cream, and season to taste. Cook for 1 min more until the cheese melts, stirring constantly.
- Pour into a bowl and cover the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. Leave to cool, then chill for 4 hrs or overnight - the mixture needs to be very stiff to form the croquetas. Take heaped teaspoons of the mixture and, with wet hands, roll into 24 small oval shapes and put on a tray. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl, put the flour on a plate and half of the breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- Roll each of the croquetas lightly in flour, then in egg before coating in breadcrumbs. Place on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Use the remaining breadcrumbs to top up the bowl halfway through the coating process. Chill for 30 mins (or to freeze, see tip, below left).
- Meanwhile, make the tomato chilli jam. Put all the ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover loosely with a lit and cook for 50 mins - 1 hr, stirring occasionally, until thick and glossy. Leave to cool before serving.
- Fill a large saucepan one-third full with the sunflower oil and heat to 180C (or heat the oil in an electric deep-fat fryer). Do not overheat and do not leave hot oil unattended. Using a metal slotted spoon, lower 6 croquets into the oil and cook for 1.5 mins or until golden brown. Transfer to a baking tray lined with kitchen paper to absorb excess oil, and continue cooking the rest. Serve with the chilli jam for dipping.
