Resep dalam bhs İndonesia ada dibagian bawah.







Happy Sunday Everybody. 

Weekend for me is busy time.... well..as busy as week days actually (^,^).. But in week end I always spend more times to makes additional snacks for the family-- especially for my little one. For some kind of snack which can be frozen (make a head) I usually stock up a bit much so any time my Sahnaz wants a snack it can be ready in a minute ..just heat it in oven or just fry it.

This time I make tuna croquettes. I  mixed my croquettes with carrots for more healthy reason . But If  you want to make it and skip it .. go ahead .. but I prefer snack for my kid ..anything..with vegetables. 
You can make it in advance and store in freezer. Use within 1 week. 


Make about 20 pcs 

Ingredients:
- about 500 gr potato (peel and wash)
- 2 medium carrot
- 2 spring onion, chopped coarsely 
- Canned tuna 160 ~ 180 g (strain the oil )
- ± 40 g  butter or margarine (I use butter) 
- 2 tablespoons flour 
- 1/2 cup (120 ml)  milk
- 1 small onion. finely chopped 
- 3 cloves of garlic. finely chopped 
- Pepper powder to taste 
- Sugar and salt to taste

Ingredients for coating 
- Egg whites (or 1 whole eggs), beaten off with 2 Tbsp water
- Bread crumb/ panko flour 
- AP flour
- Oil for frying

How to:

1 Boil water and cook potatoes until soft (if you stick a knife into its center it'll easily slip from your knife). Boil also Carrot 5 to 7  minutes before the potatoes are cooked, so they'll be cooked at the same time. Mash potatoes with a potato masher. Cut carrots into small cubes. In a bowl mix potatoes, carrots, and chopped green onion, and set aside. 

2 Heat margarine/butter in a wok. Saute garlic and chopped onion until fragrant and wilted. Stir in canned tuna and stir fry for a few minutes. Add flour, and stir fry for one minute. Pour in milk, stir until smooth, and season with salt, sugar, and pepper. Then add potato mixture. Stir the mix until blended. Check the taste. Remove from heat and let cool. 

3. Prepare your platter filled with flour and other with bread crumbs.  Beat off the egg with water and set it aside.
Take the croquette dough, a long round shape. Do it to all the remaining dough. Drag them into flour and shake it well to remove excess flour then dip croquette into beaten egg.  After that roll over panko /bread flour. İf you can thicker skin, repeat by dipping it into egg and covering with panko/ bread flour again.

4 Heat oil in a deep skillet. Fry croquettes in high heat a few minutes until golden. Remove and serve.

Note:
To get nice shape and not cracked croquette, deep fry them in very hot oil and no need too much flipped them.
Make ahead tip: Do all procedure until no#3 and keep in airtight container before store in freezer. Defrost for few minute before frying.

  2. When we lived in Germany, we saw many different types of croquettes (and loved them all), but never saw ones with tuna. What a great way to switch up this concept!
