What you need
extra large egg

cup roast turkey breast

cup shredded cheese

cup breadcrumb
olive oil
Instructions
0 Stir the mashed potatoes and 1 whisked egg in a bowl until combined and set aside. 1 In a separate bowl, combine the chopped turkey and shredded cheese stirring to combine. 2 Take 2 teaspoons of the turkey cheese mixture and form into 1 inch balls. You want to roll them tight so the turkey and cheese bind together. 3 Take 2 tablespoons of the potato egg mixture and form a patty in the palm of your hand, place a turkey cheese ball in the center and fold the potato mixture around the turkey cheese ball to make a larger ball. 4 Place the second whisked egg in a bowl and the breadcrumbs in a seperate bowl. 5 Roll each potato croquette gently into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs covering them completely. 6 Add the oil to a heavy bottomed pot over medium/high heat. The oil is hot enough if you put a few leftover breadcrumbs in and they sizzle immediately. 8 Add the croquettes to oil and fry for about 60 seconds, turning occasionally, until the outside is crispy. (Alternatively, you can bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.) 9 Using a slotted spoon, transfer the croquettes to the paper towel-lined plate and immediately season them with salt. 7 Serve with gravy or cranberry sauce.View original recipe
