Turkey Croquette Recipe
Golden crispy dumpling rolls. Deep fried and breaded.
Equipment
- Oven
- Large frying pan or wok
- food processor (optional)
Ingredients
Filling Mix
- 2 cup finely chopped cooked meat (turkey, chicken, ham, etc.) a food processor helps
- 1 cup white sauce see below
- 2 – 3 tbsp green onions finely chopped
- 2 -3 tbsp Italian flat leaf parsley finely chopped
- 1 tsp Purely Seasoning Original
White Sauce
- ¼ cup butter melted
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp Purely Seasoning Original
- ½ tsp black pepper coarse ground, or to taste
- 1 cup whole milk or mix milk and broth
For Forming Croquettes
- 1 cup flour in shallow bowl
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 cup fine dried breadcrumbs in shallow bowl
Instructions
- Combine the filling ingredients and white sauce. Spread out on plate and chill thoroughly.
- Beat the egg and water together, place in shallow bowl.
- To make the croquettes, spoon up a generous portion (2-3 T depending on desired size) of the filling mix. Form into round or torpedo-shaped patties, roll in flour, then egg, then bread crumbs. Place on baking sheet and chill for a half-hour.
- Heat 2 inches of oil (I use High Temp oils like avocado and/or grape seed) in a large frying pan (I use a wok) and fry croquettes for 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy.
- Keep warm in 150º F oven until serving time.
- The Croquettes are delicious by themselves. They thrive on being accompanied by cranberry sauce. You could also use leftover gravy or a creamy mushroom sauce but not necessary.
