Time 45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon butter
½ cup onion, chopped
3 medium green onions, chopped
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 (16 ounce) package sliced honey ham, finely chopped
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
3 cups dried breadcrumbs, divided
salt and pepper to taste
4 eggs
2 cups oil for frying
⅛ cup water

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, green onions, and garlic; cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer contents of skillet to a large bowl. Stir in ham, Cheddar cheese, and 1 1/2 cups of bread crumbs. Beat 3 eggs; stir into ham mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using your hands, make golf ball-size balls out of the ham mixture.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Spread remaining bread crumbs onto a plate. In a large bowl, beat 1 egg; stir in water. Dip balls into egg mixture, and roll in bread crumbs. Place balls in hot oil being careful not to crowd. Fry until golden brown. Remove to paper towels to soak up grease.

These croquettes are a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables. I sneak in some chopped carrots and celery into the filling and they never notice.

I had some trouble getting the croquettes to hold their shape. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

The croquettes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor.
