  • To make these potato balls, finely chop the onion and sauté it until translucent, preferably in butter. Transfer the onion to a bowl and add the mashed potatoes, peeled shrimp, chopped parsley, pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Pour in the milk, mix, and let it rest for a moment. Beat the egg with two tablespoons of plain water. Shape the mixture into balls, roll them in breadcrumbs, dip them in the egg, then roll them in the crumbs again. Heat oil for deep-frying in a deep skillet and fry the croquettes until golden brown.
