Ham and Cheese Croquettes (Croquetas de Jamón y Queso)

Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 package Smithfield® Anytime Favorites® Diced Ham
• 4 ounces queso blanco cubed

Instructions

1. Boil peeled potatoes until soft (about 20-25 minutes). Drain potatoes and sprinkle with salt.
2. When potatoes are completely cool, add garlic powder and mash until they are mostly smooth.
3. Scoop up about a Tablespoon of mashed potatoes and form into a cup shape. Fill the potato cup with about a teaspoon of ham and one cube of cheese.
4. Take two filled cups and squeeze together so that they form a ball, sealing the ham and cheese inside.
5. Dip the potato balls in a egg wash, then gently roll in bread crumbs until the outside is well coated.
6. Once all potato balls are rolled and coated in bread crumbs, fry in small batches of 2-3 at a time, depending on the size of your pan.
