Ingredients
1 15 oz can of Jack Mackerel (with the water)4 oz (1 stack) of saltine crackers, crushed2 large eggs1 medium onion, choppedseason to taste (no salt!)
Directions
Empty entire can of mackerels, including water, into a large bowl. Remove the bones if desired. Separate the mackerel with a large fork until it looks minced (or coarser, if desired). Add 2 eggs and stir into the mixture. Take one whole stack of saltine crackers and crush. This can be done in the pack with a rolling pin, or in a food processor. The pin is quicker for me! Add to the mackerel and eggs. Peel and chop 1 medium onion and add to mixture. Season to taste and stir in. Let mixture sit 5-8 minutes so the crackers can absorb moisture from the water and eggs. Do NOT skip this step. You'll be SOOORRRYYY. Makes 13-15 croquets. Deep fry in medium hot oil (sorry I don't have the temp) for 4-6 minutes or until medium brown (frying to quickly will leave insides uncooked), or on Foreman grill for 4-6 minutes.
