Good morning,
I'm very busy this weekend preparing a big party so I don't have lot's of time, but I will give you the recipe for a very simple snack to prepare in advance.
Neapolitan Croquette of potato, you can make it in the morning and fry it at night or take it to work, or use for a picnic.
My grand mum Nonna in Italian, use to make it also as a side to some sausages or meatballs or other meat dishes.
Panzerotti or crocche' di patate:
500 gr. yellow potatoes
3 eggs
150 gr. flour
150 bread crumbs
a bunch flat leaves parsley
70 gr. salame napoli
30gr. butter
70 gr. mozzarella not the buffalo one it has to much moist
salt
pepper
80 gr. Parmesan cheese#
Oil to fry
One hour before you start cut the mozzarella in small squares and leave in a colander to loose the excess of water, also chop the salame in the same size.
Start by cooking the potato skin on in hot water on medium low heat, when ready take the skin off making sure that the potatoes are still hot and pass in a potato ricer, add butter, one egg yolk, chopped parsley, salt to taste, pepper and Parmesan then start to mix with your hands.
When is all mixed well, add oil to your hands and start making small croquettes in witch you will add some mozzarella and salame to the middle, then add to a bowl with the flour, then to the bowl with the rest of the eggs that you have beaten and to finish in the bread crumbs.
To finish just put in a fryer or hot oil 180 degree in a shallow pan, when golden remove and enjoy.
Ciao from Peppe
