Steak Croquettes Recipe 425

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, peppers and garlic. Reduce the heat and cook until the vegetables have softened. Add 7 cups water, raise the heat and bring to a boil. Add the lentils and some salt, reduce to medium-low heat and cook until tender, about 20 minutes.
• Drain the lentils well and set aside for 30 minutes to cool. Meanwhile, heat oil in a deep-fryer or a heavy, deep pot to 350 degrees F.
• To assemble the croquettes: Form the lentils into balls and set aside. Beat the egg in a small bowl. In a medium bowl, combine some flour, breadcrumbs and a little chili powder. Dip the lentil balls in the egg and then in the flour mixture. Lower the croquettes into the oil and cook until brown on all sides, about 4 minutes.
• To serve, place 4 1/2 tablespoons of the guacamole in the center of the plate, followed by 4 1/2 teaspoons of the Tzatziki. Place the croquettes atop the sauce and garnish with the cilantro.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Drizzle the beets with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the yogurt, cucumber, lemon juice, vinegar and garlic in a medium bowl.
• Remove the beets from the oven, let cool for 10 minutes and then remove the skins. Add the beets and the yogurt mixture to a blender; blend until smooth and creamy.
• Scoop the avocado flesh into a low serving bowl and mash with a fork. Add the olive oil, lime juice, jalapeño and some cilantro; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Whisk egg yolk, garlic, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a bowl until well-blended. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon olive oil and canola oil slowly, whisking constantly, until blended. Drizzle in remaining olive oil and canola oil, whisking constantly, until thick and smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Transfer aioli to the refrigerator.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in flour to make a paste, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Stir in milk gradually until sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tuna, parsley, chives, dill, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, lemon zest, and nutmeg. Cook and stir until mixture is the consistency of mashed potatoes, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread tuna mixture in a baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and cool in refrigerator, 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
• Whisk 2 eggs in a small bowl.
• Pour panko bread crumbs into a shallow dish.
• Divide chilled tuna mixture into 8 equal portions; shape into cylinders or patties with lightly moistened hands. Dip cylinders into egg wash and roll in bread crumbs to coat. Arrange on a plate and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
• Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry croquettes in batches until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve alongside aioli.

Steps:

• Saute onion in butter (or broth) until tender.
• Add crumbs (or bread or mashed potatoes) to onion.
• Add seasonings, aroma and parsley to mixture.
• Add meat.
• Add broth or water if too dry.
• The mixture should be firm and stick together to form and hold shape.
• Form into 8 cylinder, balls, or pattie shaped croquettes.
• Coat with bread crumbs, then dip in the egg white, then in the bread crumbs again.
• Cook quickly in preheated hot oil until the outside is brown and the croquette is heated/cooked throughout.
• Serve hot with french fries and salad.

Steps:

• Add potatoes to a large pot of salted water, and bring to a boil; cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, pour potatoes into a large bowl. Stir in butter, and mash with a fork or potato masher. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions, and cook until soft. Stir in beef and soy sauce. Cook, stirring continuously, until beef is browned and all the liquid is evaporated. Combine beef and onions with potatoes, and stir well.
• Heat 1/2 cup oil in a deep skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
• Shape potato and beef mixture into 10 similar-size balls, and flatten into patties. Dredge patties in flour. Then dip in egg, and coat with panko bread crumbs. Carefully place patties into oil, and fry until golden brown on each side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Evenly season salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and dill. Drizzle lemon juice evenly over fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Cut each fillet into 2 pieces and serve.
