Korokke (Potato Croquette)

Potato Korokke Recipe - Japanese Recipe
From Setsuko Yoshizuka

Korokke is Japanese croquette with vegetables and meat. I just leave out the meat. Note: can simply be used with leftover mashed potatoes.
INGREDIENTS:

* 1 lb potato
* 1/4 lb ground beef
* 1/2 onion
* 1 egg
* 1/2 tsp salt
* pepper to season

* flour and panko (breadcrumb)

PREPARATION:
Peel and cut potatoes into medium chunks. Boil potatoes until soften. Mash potatoes. Mince onion and saute in a fryin pan. Add ground beef in the pan and saute. Mix mashed potato and onion and beef in a bowl.

Season with salt and pepper and mix well. Make flat and oval-shaped pieces. Coat each piece with flour. Dip in beaten egg. Coat with panko. Fry in 350 F oil until brown.

*Makes 4 servings
