"beef" croquette [Rio de Janeiro]

Today I tried out another fried recipe, this time from Rio de Janeiro / Southeast Brazil. Here's the recipe link.

I used Beyond Meat instead of beef (I actually wanted to use Impossible Beef, but it appears my local grocery doesn't stock it). I completely forgot to buy parsley or green onion, so I left those out. For the breadcrumbs, I used panko.

 

During frying. I used oil leftover from the pakoras.

 

Finished product.

They don't look anything like the photo in the recipe, and the chunks of onion reminded me a lot more of the mystery croquettes from Kill la Kill.

Verdict: Very tasty! Hard to go wrong with fried food. I might should have chopped the onions smaller. I do wish I had some kind of sauce to go with them.
