Add a photoWhile it is not a typical Japanese dish, Korokke or croquettes, are quite popular in Japan and is commonly served in Japanese restaurants and sushi bars in the U.S. and elsewhere. They are potato croquettes usually combined with ground beef and served with tonkatsu sauce.
For this recipe, I used shrimp instead of ground beef.
There are two ways to make potato croquettes: the long way (if you have the time and energy to start from scratch by mashing fresh potatoes) or the short way -- using potato pancake mix available at supermarkets. I chose the latter, using Streit's Vegetable Potato Pancake Mix. There was still a good amount of preparation to do. Hey, as they say, " no pain, no gain." After all, today happens to be Labor Day!
