Potato Croquettes with 2 Ingredients

Potato Croquettes with just two main ingredients are the perfect recipe for a quick, crispy, and satisfying snack. These croquettes are made using mashed potatoes mixed with cornstarch for a light, airy texture and seasoned with salt, pepper, and a touch of paprika for extra flavor.

After boiling and mashing the potatoes, the mixture is formed into small balls, about 12-15 grams each, and then fried to a golden brown in hot vegetable oil. The result is a crunchy exterior with a soft and fluffy interior that’s irresistible.
