POTATO CROQUETTES
Serves 4
2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons flour
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup grated cheese (any kind -- optional)
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
In a medium bowl, combine potatoes, egg and flour. Mix well. Add green onions, salt and pepper and cheese, if using. Stir until combined.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Using a serving-sized spoon, form croquettes with potato mixture, using heaping spoonfuls and rounding against the side of the bowl. With another spoon, if necessary, carefully drop croquettes in hot oil and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Serve alone or add to an omelet with turkey and avocado.
