Fish Chowder Croquettes With Rum Aïoli
- 2 medium scallops, diced
- 6 ounces red snapper, diced
- 1 large russet potato, peeled and boiled until fork tender
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
- 2 teaspoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/3 cup diced Portuguese chorizo
- 6 ounces jumbo lump crabmeat, drained and picked
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup panko
- 3 cups canola oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Prepared pepper sauce (optional)
- Combine scallops and snapper in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until combined. Combine potato, dill, and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl; mash well with a potato masher or large fork. Stir in scallop mixture, chorizo, and crabmeat; stir well to combine.
- Place cornstarch, eggs, and panko in 3 separate shallow containers. Divide croquette mixture into 18 equal portions; form portions into balls. Roll each ball in cornstarch, then eggs, then panko. Set aside on a plate.
- Heat oil in a large pot to 330u0b0. Carefully fry croquettes, in batches, 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove croquettes from oil using a slotted spoon; place on a paper towel-lined platter. Immediately sprinkle croquettes with kosher salt and black pepper as they are removed from oil. Serve with Rum Aioli and pepper sauce, if desired.
