Korokke (Croquette) is a parcel of food such as minced meat or vegetables, shaped into a cylinder or circle, encased in breadcrumbs and deep fried.
My mom always mixes minced meat and boiled eggs to add richness, which makes the croquette really addictive! My darling loves it, so I always make tons of them!
