SALMON CROQUETTES

Crispy on the outside and soft in the inside, these kid-friendly Salmon Croquettes are great as part of a main meal or lunch.

INGREDIENTS

• ▢400g (2 cups) Mashed Potato *SEE NOTE 1

• ▢250g (8.8oz) Cooked Salmon *SEE NOTE 2

• ▢2 Spring Onion (Green onion / scallion), finely chopped

• ▢2 tsp Fresh Lemon Juice

• ▢1 tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley

• ▢1 tbsp Chopped Chives

• ▢65g (1/2 cup) Peas

• ▢1 tsp Wholegrain Mustard

• ▢2 Eggs

• ▢60g (1 cup) Panko Breadcrumbs *SEE NOTE 3

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a large mixing bowl add the potato, salmon, spring onion, lemon juice, parsley, chives, peas, mustard and 1 egg (beaten). Mix until combined but try not to overmix, leaving some texture.

• Take a heaped tablespoon of the mixture and form into croquettes. I made 19. Place on a baking tray and chill for at least 15 mins. *SEE NOTE 4

• If baking, preheat the oven to 180C / 360F.

• Beat the remaining egg and place in a shallow dish. Place the breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish.

• Dip the croquette in the egg and then coat in the breadcrumbs and return to the baking tray. Repeat for all croquettes.

• Spray or lightly drizzle with oil. Place in the oven for 20 min, until cooked through and golden.

• Alternatively, heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium / high heat. Add 2 tbsp of oil and gently place the croquettes in the frying pan. Fry for around 4-5 min on each side.
