Potato croquettes in air fryer

Air fryer potato croquettes are ready to enjoy as an appetizer or side dish, accompanied by a fresh tomato sauce or flavored mayonnaise. They are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfect to please all palates. Serve piping hot so that the mozzarella cheese inside is stringy and appetizing.Thanks to the air fryer, these croquettes are cooked evenly and golden brown without adding too much oil, but they still remain super crispy!
