Crispy and golden on the outside, with a soft, tasty centre, these Pork & Veggie Croquettes make a wonderful appetizer, finger food or main course. Especially with the onion and broccoli, it’s very delicious. They make a great addition to the texture of the croquette.

3 SERVING

Ingredients:

10 oz. Ground Pork
2 oz. Cabbage
1/2 Large Onion
1 Small Carrot
2 Stalks Green Onion
2 oz. Broccoli
1 tbsp. Minced Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp. Shaoxing Wine
1 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Ground Black Pepper
2 Large Egg
1/4 cup Corn Starch
1/2 cup Panko

Directions:

Chop the stem of the cabbage, broccoli, onion, shallots, carrots, and red bell peppers. Set aside.

In a large bowl, add minced pork, various vegetables, Shaoxing cooking wine, salt, black pepper, eggs, cornstarch, and bread crumbs. Mix well. Note: You can use any vegetables of your choice. Do not over-seasoning the mixture.

Spray a little oil in the palm of your hand, divide (2) into 8-10 portions, about 3 inches wide each.

Use a large skillet, add the oil and put all patties in the pan. Note: The patties are all in the pan with cold oil. When we turn on the heat in the next step, it’ll cook evenly.

Heat up the oil over high heat. When you see oil start bubbling up, turn to medium-low heat. Cook each side for about 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Note: When pan-frying, be patient, and fry slowly on a medium-low heat.
