potato croquettes

Crispy mashed cylinders

Potato croquettes are small cylinders or balls of mashed potato, often mixed with seasonings, cheese, or other ingredients, coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until crisp.

They appear as side dishes, appetizers, or snacks across many cuisines: The restaurant served steak with potato croquettes.

The crispy exterior gives way to a soft, creamy interior.
