Tofu Croquette
Since my son doesn’t eager to eat vegetables, I always try to create/arrange new recipes for him.
The other day, I introduced this croquette on my Instagram’s story video and some of my followers are interested in this recipe. So, I decided to share today!
This is arranged version of croquette recipe with various vegetables inside. I use tofu and ground chicken to add some protein this time but you can also add cheese, tempe etc. As for coating, I used Japanese dry baked wheat gluten. You can use normal Panko (bread crumbs) of course.
Please try it out!
Ingredients (10 balls):
200g ground chicken
1/2 Silken tofu *Firm tofu is also ok!
1/2 Onion
2 Potatoes
2 stems Broccoli
1 Green pepper
Salt & Pepper, to your taste
For frying:
1 Egg
Japanese dry baked wheat gluten, as needed *Panko (bread crumbs) is also ok!
Flour, as needed
Vegetable oil/Canola oil
Directions:
1. Wrap the tofu with kitchen paper and strain its water for about 15 – 30 minutes.
2. Steam potatoes and broccoli in a steamer. When it becomes soft, mush potatoes and chop broccoli very well.
3. Chop green pepper and onion into small pieces.
4. Stir-fry ground chicken, green pepper and onion in a pan with medium heat. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Put all the ingredients (tofu, mushed potato, broccoli, seasoned chicken and vegetables) in a bowl and mix them all together with using hand. Then, make 10 balls.
