Potato and Pea Croquettes with Mango Sauce
Yield 12 Croquettes
Free of: gluten and top 9 allergens.
Leftover mashed potatoes never tasted so good!
Ingredients
Mango Sauce
2 cups mango chunks, fresh or frozen and thawed
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 teaspoons coconut aminos
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon sriracha
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Croquettes
1 tablespoon buttery sticks (such as Earth Balance Soy Free)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
2-1/2 cups cold mashed potatoes (about 5 medium potatoes)
3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs (such as Ian's panko breadcrumbs)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients for the mango sauce in a high speed blender. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour into a small serving bowl and refrigerate until needed. This makes about 1-1/4 cups.
- Heat buttery sticks and oil in a medium saucepan or skillet over medium heat until melted and sizzling. Add diced onion and cook, stirring often, until onions start to soften. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring often, until caramelized (golden and a jam like consistency), about 20-25 minutes. After 10 minutes of cooking, sprinkle ½ teaspoon salt over onions. Measure out ½ cup of caramelized onions and set aside. Reserve remaining onions for other uses, such as pizza, pasta, or soups.
- In a medium bowl, combine mashed potatoes, ½ cup caramelized onions, peas, curry powder, garlic, cumin, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Mix well.
- Portion potato mixture into 12 balls or cylinders. We like to portion using a #20 scoop or disher, often designated with a yellow handle.
- Preheat air fryer to 390-degrees F.
- Place breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Roll each croquette into breadcrumbs, coating well. Lightly spray each croquette and air fryer basket with vegetable or olive oil spray.
- Place croquettes in a single layer in basket and air fry for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to fry in 2 batches, being careful not to crowd basket.
- Serve with mango sauce or a sweet chutney and a mixed green salad. The mango sauce doubles as a salad dressing for this dish.
Notes
We prefer Ian's panko breadcrumbs. When we shopped they were out of stock, so for this recipe we used another gluten free brand.
