Korokke Making Session

Published on 3 June 2009 in Cuisine Events and Events Calendar.

Mashed potato? Breadcrumbs!

Greetings, everyone!

For the month of June, we take you on a little tour around French cuisine and back to Japan! That’s right, we proudly present to you the popular Japanese croquette, korokke!

Consisting of mashed potato with variable fillings and coated with breadcrumbs, this deep-fried delight is vastly available in supermarkets, convenience stores and especially korokke shops. Korokke commonly comes in the form of patties, and are served with a variety of sauces, mayonnaise, or shredded veggie. Korokke may be eaten by itself as a snack, a topping accompanying other dishes, or even made into a sandwich (“korokke pan”)!

Sound fascinating?

Don’t miss this opportunity, join us for our korokke making session! Let us teach and guide you along the way to making this wonderful and well-known dish.
