Sublime Non-Fried Creamed Corn Tofu Croquettes
- 1/2 medium Finely chopped onion
- 5 tbsp Canned corn (drained)
- 1 tbsp Butter or margarine
- 1 block, 350 grams Silken tofu (no need to drain)
- 2 bags Corn soup powder
- 1 Black pepper
- 3 tbsp Cake flour
- 1 generous amount Olive oil
- 200 ml Panko
- Melt the butter in a pan and saute the onion and corn.
- When the onion becomes translucent, add the ingredients and mix with a whisk until smooth.
- Cook for another 2 minutes to evaporate the moisture.
- Turn the heat down to low and add the cake flour in 3 batches, stirring well after each addition so that no lumps form.
- The mixture will become thick and hard to stir.
- Mix well as if you were kneading the mixture while you cook it.
- Turn off the heat and transfer the mixture to another container to cool it down.
- If you chill it well, it will become easier to handle.
- Put the panko in a bowl.
- Drop spoonfuls of the Step 3 mixture into the bowl.
- Coat each portion in the panko as you form 6-cm diameter patties.
- They don't have to be all the same size or shape, as shown in this photo.
- If you touch the filling while you are forming the patties they'll get sticky, so make sure to use the panko as a cushion between the filling and your hands.
- This way you can form the patties without making a sticky mess.
- Gently pan-fry the patties in a generous amount of olive oil, taking care that they don't fall apart.
- When both sides are golden brown the croquettes are done.
- These are delicious plain, but if you are going to serve them with a sauce, aurora sauce or Japanese-style Worcestershire sauce go well with these.
- Also take a look at my related recipe, "Non-Fried Tuna and Tofu Croquettes", too.
- These are not as sweet as the corn croquettes.
