Cute Apple Croquettes

1. 1

   Cook the apples and onion and mash while simmering.

2. 2

   Grating them is also fine, but I don't recommend it since it produces too much liquid.

3. 3

   Add the ground pork, soy sauce, and sugar, and saute for a while.

4. 4

   Boil and mash the potatoes.

5. 5

   After a substantial amount of the liquid has evaporated from the apple mixture, stir in the potatoes.

6. 6

   Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into apple-like balls.

7. 7

   Coat the croquette balls in the flour, beaten egg, and panko, then reshape.

8. 8

   Make the indentations using chopsticks and your fingers.

9. 9

   Deep fry them in plenty of oil (over medium heat).

10. 10

    Deep fry the burdock root cut into stem-like matchsticks, and set them into the croquettes.

11. 11

    Kids will love these with an apple-based sauce, made from boiling down a mixture of 1 tablespoon grated apple, 1 tablespoon honey, and 4 tablespoons Japanese Worcestershire-style sauce to a thick sauce.
