Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Chives
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized pieces. Place them in a large pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes or until fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes, then allow them to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with almond flour, egg, chopped chives, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients until well combined.
Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into small, oval patties or balls about 2 inches in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, gently place the croquettes in the skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Cook the croquettes for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the croquettes from the skillet and drain on a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve the croquettes warm as a side dish or an appetizer.
