🍠 Crispy taro croquettes

16 croquettes · prep 30 min · cook 20 min

Ingredients

• 700 g taro (or sweet potato)
• 2 tbsp tapioca starch
• 1 onion, 2 garlic cloves
• 150 g ground chicken
• 2 spring onions
• 1 egg + panko breadcrumbs to coat
• Frying oil, salt, white pepper

Method

1. Steam the taro rather than boiling it: boiled, it soaks up water and the mixture will not hold.
2. Mash it while hot with the starch, salt and pepper.
3. Fry the onion, garlic and ground chicken, add the spring onion, and let it cool.
4. Take a portion of mash in your palm, hollow it, fill it and close it into a ball.
5. Dip in beaten egg then panko, and chill 20 min to firm up.
6. Fry at 175 °C for 3 min, until deep golden.
