How to cook deliciously - Broccoli & Cheddar Croquettes

1. Stage

In a large bowl, mash potatoes with a potato masher. Add cheddar, sour cream, garlic, parsley, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper and mix well. Stir in chopped Birds Eye® Steamfresh® Broccoli Florets and mix well, then mix in eggs. You should have a consistently lumpy mashed potato and broccoli mix.

2. Stage

Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons broccoli mixture into your hands and form into an oval- or football-shaped croquette. Arrange on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, at least 20 minutes.

3. Stage

Dip croquettes into eggs, then coat with bread crumbs. Return to baking sheet.

4. Stage

Into a large skillet over high heat, pour oil to a depth of about 1" and heat until hot. Reduce heat to medium-high and carefully fry croquettes, turning occasionally, until deeply golden brown on all sides, about 4 minutes. Let drain on paper towels.

5. Stage

Transfer croquettes to a platter. Serve with dipping sauce alongside.
