Salmon Croquettes

Description

This is my mother-in-law's recipe for croquettes. Whenever I make these, my husband can't get enough of them! They can be made with whatever you have on hand, tuna, ham, fish, chicken, or vegetables, spinach, carrots, zucchini--anything you can find in the pantry basically!

Cooking Time

Preparation Time :10 Min

Cook Time : 20 Min

Total Time : 30 Min

Ingredients

Serves : 6
  • 1 salmon


  • 1 onion


  • salt and pepper


  • 1⁄4 flour


  • 1 1⁄2 milk


  • 1⁄4 garlic powder


  • 1cup seasoned bread crumbs (about)


  • 2 eggs


  • 2 butter


  • sunflower oil (for frying)

Directions

  • In a large frypan, heat butter over medium high heat, and sauté onion and garlic powder.
  • Add salmon, season with salt and pepper (you may wish to add dill) and heat through.
  • Add flour and stir well.
  • Add milk gradually stirring constantly until mixture thickens and forms a ball.
  • Remove mixture to plate and allow to cool completely (this may be done the day before, and the mixture placed in the refrigerator--it's easier to work with this way).
  • Form into oval shaped croquettes, dip in egg and dredge in bread crumbs.
  • Deep fry in hot oil, and drain on paper towels.
  • This recipe can be made with practically anything, fish, chicken, ham, vegetables (spinach is lovely).
