potato korokke recipe

Korokke are Japanese croquettes. This is a variation of my potato korokke recipe. Curry powder adds a great flavor to the potato filling.

Ingredients:

• 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
• 1/4 lb ground pork
• 1/2 onion, finely chopped
• 1 egg
• 2 tsps curry powder
• salt and pepper to season
• *flour and panko (breadcrumb) for coating
• *vegetable oil for deep-frying

Preparation:

Boil potatoes until soften in a large pan. Drain and mash potatoes while they are hot. Saute onion and pork in a medium skillet until cooked. Mix mashed potatoes and onion and pork in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and curry powder. Make flat and oval-shaped patties. Coat each piece with flour. Dip in beaten egg, and coat with panko at last. Fry in 350 F oil until brown. *Makes 4 servings
