How to make Turkey Apple Croquettes:
We gather all the ingredients to make the light turkey and apple croquettes. To begin, we finely chop the turkey meat. For this we can chop it with the knife or with the mincer. On the other hand, peel the apple and cut it into small pieces. We also chop the onion the same size. Mix the three ingredients in a bowl and season to taste. At this time you can also add some aromatic herb. Grate the Parmesan cheese and mix it with the rest of the ingredients to form a consistent dough. Parmesan cheese gives a very special touch to these croquettes but if you prefer, you can change it for another type of semi-cured or cured cheese.
We form the turkey and apple croquettes giving them a rounded shape and pass them through breadcrumbs. As you can see, in this recipe we have dispensed with the egg so as not to add calories to the batter. Put the turkey and apple croquettes in the oven at 180ºC for 20 minutes. You always have the option of frying them, but as we explained before, in this recipe we have preferred to make light croquettes made in the oven. Turkey and apple croquettes are an ideal appetizer for children or for any party with friends. To complete an informal dinner, you can prepare other original tapas such as stuffed eggs with salmon flowers or supreme with mayonnaise and corn.
