Rocky's Zesty Ham Croquettes

Rocky's Zesty Ham Croquettes
  • 1 1/2 pounds leftover baked ham
  • 4 eggs, divided
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup fresh chopped garlic
  • 1/4 cup dried minced onion
  • 3 cups Italian-style bread crumbs
  • 2 cups shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 cups extra-virgin olive oil


  1. Grind ham into a large bowl.
  2. Beat 3 eggs in a small bowl.
  3. Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and dried onion; cook and stir until browned, about 5 minutes. Pour mixture into the bowl with the ham; add the beaten eggs, 1 cup bread crumbs, Cheddar cheese, brown sugar, and black pepper. Mix by hand until combined; mold into 15 to 18 medium croquettes, or rectangular balls.
  4. Beat remaining 1 egg in a bowl with 1 tablespoon water. Pour remaining 2 cups bread crumbs into a large nonstick baking pan. Dip each croquette in the egg and roll in bread crumbs.
  5. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add croquettes; fry in batches until golden brown, about 10 minutes total. Place finished croquettes on a paper towels to drain excess oil.
