To make croquette potatoes simmer the potatoes in some lightly salted water for 15 minutes or until they become tender.
Then drain and mash the potatoes thoroughly, preferably using a ricer.
Then beat in butter and 2 egg yolks and then finally add the cheese and season to taste.
Then cover it and leave covered until it's firm and cool enough to handle.
Once the potato mixture is cool enough to handle and firm you can form them into small logs using dampened hands.
Then you can fry them in a deep fryer, air fryer or even bake them.
Croquette potatoes are deep fried mashed potato balls and are also a good way to use leftovers as well.
While most commonly deep fried you can also bake the croquette potatoes if you prefer to do so.
