Potato croquettes recipe, perfect looking potato croquettes that are vegetarian friendly. Potato, corn, cheese as main ingredients, these are great snack for kids, perfect party starters too.
I saw these cheese oozing croquettes in Tasty, but it was not a vegetarian one. But I loved the recipe and Aj too saw it and got way too much tempted by it. I saved it for trying and since Aj’s holiday is gonna end, he asked me to do this for him. He was also helping me in preparing these veggie croquettes. I used maida for coating and corn for vegetarian option. I made these in cylindrical shapes, but you can make in your comfortable favorite shape. Check out my veg cutlet

Potato croquettes recipe, perfect looking potato croquettes that are vegetarian friendly. Potato, corn, cheese as main ingredients, these are great snack for kids
Servings 12
Cup measurements
Ingredients
- Potato – 4
- Cheese – ¾ cup
- Sweet corn cooked – ¼ cup
- Coriander leaves very finely chopped – ½ cup
- Black pepper powder – 1 tsp
- Salt
- Green chilli – 2 very finely chopped
- Italian herbs – 1 tsp
- Corn four – ¼ cup
- All purpose flour/ Maida – 3 tbsp
- Milk – ¼ cup
- Bread crumbs – ¾ cup
Instructions
- Peel, cube the potatoes. I used frozen corn and microwaved to cook it. You can choose your method to cook, but make sure it does not retain any water.
- Boil water, add the cubed potato, salt and cook until soft. Do not overcook. Otherwise it will retain water.
- Transfer to mixing bowl and mash it well.
- Add cooked corn, coriander leaves, green chilli, pepper powder, Italian herbs, cheese, required salt and mix well.
- Divide into 12 equal size balls, shape into cylinders or any desired shapes.
- Mix maida in milk to make a batter, thick enough to coat. Keep corn flour and bread crumbs ready in separate bowls/ tray. Coat each rolled croquette in corn flour first.
- Dip it in maida. Roll it in bread crumbs. Use both hands, to handle wet and dry ingredients separately for less mess.
- Repeat to finish all. Heat oil and drop few at a time. Cook until golden.
- Turn once or twice for even browning. Drain over paper towel.
Notes
You can choose any method to cook potato, but make sure it does not retain water, as well as cooked well.
You can skip corn and add some chopped onions as well.
I cubed the cheese and added, you can choose to grate too. I used amul processed cheese cubes.
After rolling in step 4 or before frying you can choose to refrigerate the croquettes.
If some cheese oozes out while frying, just take it out and discard after frying each batch.

Hi Lakshmi, From where it is linked? (Where you clicked the link)
Raks anand
You can sure try 🙂 Instead of adding grated cheese, try stuffing cheese inside to prevent cheese oozing out tna losing its shape.
