I am a huge fan of potatoes in all forms, but these potato croquettes with garlic aioli have become one of my absolute favorite snacks. Not only are they delicious, but they're also easy to make and perfect for entertaining. I've been serving them at all of my dinner parties, and they always disappear quickly.
The croquettes themselves are crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, thanks to the mashed potatoes and cheese mixed in. And the garlic aioli adds the perfect amount of tangy flavor. I promise, once you try them, you won't be able to stop eating them.

1 | Peel and cut the potatoes into small chunks. Boil them in salted water for about 15 minutes or until tender. |
2 | Drain the potatoes and mash them with a fork or a potato masher. |
3 | In a separate bowl, beat the egg and add it to the mashed potatoes along with the flour, parmesan cheese and milk. Mix everything together until well combined. |
4 | Form the mixture into small croquettes, about the size of a ping-pong ball. |
5 | Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the croquettes for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain them on a paper towel. |
6 | In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Serve the croquettes warm with the garlic aioli on the side. |
They're perfect for a quick and easy snack, an appetizer for a dinner party, or even as a side dish to a main course. I love serving them with a green salad or some roasted vegetables. They're also great as leftovers and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
