Default Croquettes with no egg?

Now I am Jonesing for croquettes after seeing that in the subject. The
problems? I need a recipe for baked ones with no egg. I used to make some
with hominy (perhaps grits?) and cheese. They were rolled in bread crumbs
and baked. I served them with tomato sauce on top. I think I no longer have
the cookbook that that the recipe was in though. It did contain egg but I
think if I put enough cheese in, it might be enough to bind it all together.

Anyone have a recipe for some with no egg? And no, I don't really know of
any good egg substitutes. Most don't work. Flax seeds might work in this
though.

You can grind up chia seeds and mix with hot water, let stand and it becomes gelatinous enough to bind it.

Latkes don't need eggs. Mashed spuds make good croquettes, no eggs
required.

your memory fails you or you stubbornly refuse to look when I post
pictures. Nevertheless. Something is needed to hold the coquettes
together. I shudder to think what your mashed potatoes are like if
they hold together without a binder.

I have made potato cakes with no binder. Have to make them small and thin
and they're not very good.

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.

Don't think I've ever had a potato croquette. How do you make them?

I use maybe cups of leftover, cold mashed potatoes that have been
make with milk and butter, minced or grated onion, 1 egg, some bread
crumbs to consistency to hold shape. Scoop some potato mixture and
form into a ball, drop into hot grease, butter or oil of your choice.
Medium heat. Fry on one side until brown and crispy. Turn the ball
partially over so that you have one flat browned side, one totally
uncooked side plus the side that you have just turned over. Brown
that side then turn again so that you have 3 browned sides. Generally,
the recipes on the 'Net are fairly similar. Tasty. My husband always
looks forward to them.

I am off to the grocery store presently and now I absolutely have to
have some oxtail! I don't care if people in NA don't eat it, when we
came here 50 years ago they didn't and the butcher would just give you
some, same with nice marrow soup bones, now they are an item and
expensive

The chicken wing prices are just silly these days.

For some reason, I only get the urge for them at Superbowl time.
I guess since it's a traditional thing to eat at that time. Worst
time ever too as they are so popular then, the price goes way up.

Old story but this happened to me several years ago. Superbowl
Sunday and I thought I'd make some chicken wings....until I saw
the price...large packs of wings were $4.99/lb. Yeah right! That
much and about half of the weight is bones/lost weight.

I wasn't going to pay that and was disappointed that I wouldn't
have the food as I was all set and looking forward to it. Then
right in the very next section was a whole fryer chicken for only
$0.88/lb. Hmmmmm, I thought.

Well I bought a 2-3 lb whole chicken and cut it all up myself. I
oven baked it. Once done, I treated all the large pieces just
like chicken wings. Coated each piece with the mix of melted
butter and Frank's Hot Sauce. And on the plate I had a dipping
pile of "Marie's Blue Cheese Dressing."

Well....turned out much better than using wings. Rather then
nibbling on a chicken wing piece, how about chomping down on
large bite of chicken thigh with all the same flavors. Oh yeah!
I haven't bought wings since that day.

No more Buffalo Wings for me....
I make "Buffalo Whole Chicken" now. Screw the scrawny wings.
:-D

My daughter made some mac and cheese in the slow cooker. I bagged the leftovers with the intention of making croquettes but she dumped it before I got around to it. I didn't want to use any eggs either.

I suppose you could use an ice cream scoop to scoop out some mac and cheese on to parchment paper and smash it down, then sprinkle some bread crumbs on to and stick it in a hot oven for 15 minutes or so. I was going to deep fry mine but that never happened. That's the breaks.
