AMAZING
REALLY GOOD
2nd PERKEDEL
WARTEK, Petaling Jaya
Excellent with the extra side of house sambal.
3rd PERKEDEL
Cumi Bali Indonesian Restaurant, Singapore
Cumi Bali's own potato balls. These were really well executed and they paired perfectly with the house sambal.
4th CREAM CROQUETTE
Itacho Sushi, Singapore
This was better than I expected! But it doesn’t compare to the cream corn one they have at Sushi Tei.
5th BAGEDEL
Warong Nasi Pariaman, Singapore
“Deep-fried mashed potato mixed with minced beef and coriander and coated with egg.” These are surprisingly and pleasantly smoky, and the best of everything I tried today. Goes great with the sambal belacan. Quite possibly the best bagedel I’ve had as well.
6th グルメ北海道産男爵コロッケ かぼちゃ
J-Mart, Singapore
Gourmet Hokkaido pumpkin croquettes that I bought frozen and deep-fried on a second occasion after microwaving them on the first occasion yielded disappointing results. Follow the instructions on the package, kids and don’t be lazy like I was the first time.
10th BITTERBALLEN COMBO
Martin Zwerts Friture, Singapore
Spherical croquettes of beef and chicken, but mostly beef (I tasted none of the chicken). The contents had a gravy-like consistency. But let’s get to the star of the dish, which were the frites. These were solid chunks of potato, with crisp outsides and deliciously fluffy insides. Got it to go with the store’s MZ Special Sauce (Onion Frite & Kerrie) and the Garlic Frite sauce (which I preferred).
11th KABOCHA KOROKKE かぼちゃコロッケ
Soots Cook Nook, Private
What can I say? I love pumpkin and I love croquettes! So I had to add Panko crumbs to the pantry (boo)! Adding maple smoked bacon to the pumpkin and onion filling was a game changer. For me anyway. Crispy on the outside and naturally sweet and savory on the inside, what’s not to party about in your mouth?!?
12th 北海道産とうもろこしのクリームコロッケ
Kobe Croquette, Kyoto
Hokkaido creamed corn croquette. I wish these were as readily available and affordable here as they are in Japan. 😋
15th ALLRECIPES’ LEFTOVER CHICKEN CROQUETTES
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Not a bad way to repurpose all that chicken left over from making chicken soup and to finally dispose of all the breadcrumbs (from too many sourdough baking trials) taking up space in the fridge.
18th ニッスイ コーンクリームコロッケ NISSUI CORN CREAM CROQUETTES
J-Mart, Singapore
These were waaay smaller (~ the size of my thumb) than I expected, and for the (already questionable at the outset) price and less than stellar texture, I will not be getting them again.
19th MYSTERY CROQUETTES
Ningyocho Imahan, Chuo City
Eating out in Japan can sometimes be an exciting guessing game, especially if you’re in the outskirts.
20th カニクリームコロツケ
Ningyocho Imahan, Chuo City
I thought it was a creamed corn croquette. Little did I know I would find out more than 2 months later via Google Translate that it was actually a creamed crab croquette 😳 🦀
