FISH CROQUETTES

The fish mixture can be made up to 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The shaped croquettes can be breaded and frozen on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then transferred to a freezer bag for up to 1 month. Fry directly from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to cooking time.

Store leftover fried croquettes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven on a wire rack for 10-12 minutes to restore crispness; avoid microwaving as it will make the coating soggy. Uncooked shaped and breaded croquettes can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours before frying.
