Season with white pepper, six gun spice and add ginger and garlic paste and a single finely chopped green chilli. Add two tbspns of lemon juice. Do not add salt as the six gun spice contains salt. Add a little oil to the pan and cook until the meat turns white.\u202f\u00a0Boil 3 potatoes for mash. Once soft, mash and add a tsp of butter and white pepper.\u00a0Mix mash and cooked chicken together and allow to cool.\u00a0Whisk three eggs in a bowl and set aside.\u202fIn another bowl, add a cup of flour.\u202fIn a third bowl, finely crush two small packets of Simba Mexican chilli flavoured chips. To this bowl, add two tbspns of flour and some Mexican spice, smoked paprika or pepper if you want to take the heat up a notch. Do not add extra salt.\u202fForm mash and chicken into medium sized balls. Dip in plain\u202f flour, then in egg and finally into Mexican chilli mixture. Set the resulting croquettes on a plate to cool down slightly and firm up. You may refrigerate or freeze at this stage.\u202fAdd a shallow layer of oil to a non stick pan and fry the croquettes on a high to medium heat ensuring that they brown evenly all over. To serve, create your own dipping sauce or mix mayo and tomato sauce. Great for lunchboxes, snacks, light meals or tapas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RECIPE COURTESY: FATIMA KASOOJEE COURTESY: FATIMA KASOOJEE Ingredients: 3 chicken fillets 3 potatoes Ginger and garlic White pepper Six gun spice..its a Barbeque seasoning available at your supermarkets Smoked Paprika 1 finely chopped green chilli 2 packets of Mexican chilli crisps 3 eggs 1 tsp of butter Flour Oil to fry Method: Chop up 3 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":74825,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[99,108],"tags":[8432],"class_list":["post-74813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes","category-scrumptious-savouries","tag-chicken-and-mash-potato-croquettes"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/chicken-and-mashed-potato-croquettes.jpg?fit=602%2C452&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pc0QIf-jsF","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-12 20:45:54","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74813","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74813"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74813\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74825"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/radioislam.org.za\/a\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
