Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 1/2 Onion, finely chopped
- 3/4 Apple
- 1/2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp Sugar
- 100 grams Ground pork (optional)
- 1 Panko, plain flour, and egg
- 1 dash Burdock root
Method
- Cook the apples and onion and mash while simmering.
- Grating them is also fine, but I don't recommend it since it produces too much liquid.
- Add the ground pork, soy sauce, and sugar, and saute for a while.
- Boil and mash the potatoes.
- After a substantial amount of the liquid has evaporated from the apple mixture, stir in the potatoes.
- Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into apple-like balls.
- Coat the croquette balls in the flour, beaten egg, and panko, then reshape.
- Make the indentations using chopsticks and your fingers.
- Deep fry them in plenty of oil (over medium heat).
- Deep fry the burdock root cut into stem-like matchsticks, and set them into the croquettes.
- Kids will love these with an apple-based sauce, made from boiling down a mixture of 1 tablespoon grated apple, 1 tablespoon honey, and 4 tablespoons Japanese Worcestershire-style sauce to a thick sauce.
