Delicious croquettes made with corned beef hash, bell peppers, garlic, onions, ham, and mozzarella cheese rolled all rolled up in Japanese bread crumbs.
Delicious! I loved the crispness from the panko bread crumbs and the combination of the corned beef hash with the ham and veggies. I don't own a deep fryer so I didn't shape them like meatballs, I shaped them into patties. Will make again

7.19.17 First, be prepared to spend some time to prep this recipe and then clean up. Save this for a weekend, it’s worth the effort. Few things that I found curious about this recipe. The corned beef hash and the ham are already cooked, and then the croquettes are deep fried, as well, so not sure why they needed to be browned in a skillet on the stove top? Also, don’t know why half of the ham was browned with the croquette mixture and the other half just mixed into the mixture prior to forming into croquettes. I wish I’d read the first review before I made this because I think she’s right. Since a lot of liquid cooked out of the veggies, drain it before adding the other ingredients. The mixture was too wet to roll (I tried), so I ended up putting the bowl in the fridge for 30 miinutes, then another 30 minutes, and it still was falling apart. I ended up adding some panko crumbs to firm it up enough so that I could do the flour-egg-panko crumb breading which I don’t think negatively affected the flavor. On the positive side, they were really tasty, moist on the inside but crunchy on the exterior, browned up beautifully, and we thoroughly enjoyed them. FYI I used a muffin/mashed potato-size scoop and ended up with 10 croquettes. I’ve made corned beef hash for years from scratch, and had my doubts about canned, but this was a pleasant surprise. I served with a side of Spicy Honey Mustard Sauce (from this site), instant pot macaroni & cheese, and cole slaw.
Delicious! Though this definitely takes a lot of prep, so make sure to plan accordingly. The only thing I did differently than the instructions, which I recommend, is to drain the excess liquid from the veggies and ham after sauteeing. Otherwise it would be too difficult to roll the croquettes.
