Instructions
Peel and quarter the potatoes. Place them in a large pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk (or cream), egg yolks, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mashed potato mixture to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
Once chilled, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture and shape it into a cylinder or oval. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Set up three shallow dishes. In the first, place the all-purpose flour. In the second, whisk the eggs. In the third, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each croquette in the flour, then dip it in the egg wash, and finally coat it in the panko breadcrumbs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the croquettes in the basket in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd. You may need to cook them in batches. Spray the tops of the croquettes with cooking spray.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the croquettes from the air fryer and serve immediately.
