Lovely Leftovers - Crispy Lamb & Vegetable Croquettes

Just a bit of low-effort cooking, transforming leftovers from Sunday dinner into crispy lamb croquettes.

Hi, Mike. I mentioned you in a post on one of Max Miller's videos. He replied that he really enjoys your channel. 😊

I think cooking with left overs is so underrated. It's how i grew up and even now i will buy extra veg to make left over meals. As a kid we'd be excited over fried sliced roast spuds with a fried egg on the side. Looking forward to trying this myself 😊

Single handedly fighting food waste with his delicious ideas. Nice one Mr Mike!

I love your channel, just wholesome, everyday events with some weird stuff (in a can) mixed in. Great way to unwind at the end of the day.

I imagine a premade stuffing mix would work quite nicely as a breading for something like this, or fried chicken with a stuffing coating (lol) and gravy

The ending song was very lovely, really suited the mood.

Loved this video. Id never heard of bubble and squeak but we do the same thing with leftover fish and potatoes where I live. But without the crumbs, Ill definately be trying it this way though. Great video.

The current way I'm using many leftovers is to make vegetable pastries. With stews, casseroles and curries, I use frozen puff pastry and make individual pies. Thai chicken curry and Balinese chicken satay curry pies are my current favourites.

I was impressed with your breading technique. No matter what a say to myself before I start breading, I end up with giant coated fingers that could block the sink when I wash my hands! Well done xx

Love watching some of the strange but wonderful foods out of bits of leftovers etc

Growing up with my grandparents, my grandma would make lamb fritters with the leftover lamb and on most occasions bubble & sqeak

ok well rolling pin + immersion blender's beaker for a make shift pestle and mortar is actually genius, I have to remember that one !

What a great idea. I think I'm going to try this with my Thanksgiving left-overs this year

You did an amazing job deciding on the amount of crumbs to use! 👍. Thank you for the video!

[GrandadMoose]

Looks tasty! I've never made anything like bubble & squeak before but now I plan to!

Eva to the rescue on free floor food ha ha, what a thoughtful use for the left over liquid eggs win win for Eva! I always enjoy watching your videos, they're informative, fun yet quite casual.

11:56 “The dining table is beckoning” is a fun way of saying “I’m hungry”! You mind if I quote you on that?

Chestnuts are one of my favorite tree, and my favorite nut when I can actually get a hold of them (US here). I love when I see someone overseas enjoying them, or taking a stroll through chestnut forests. Thanks for doing this! Both meals looked amazing.

Eva with her pink bone dish holder, so adorable. Have an awesome weekend.

They look delicious, Mike.
Definitely a notch above plain old 'Bubble.'
Also, shoulder over leg, every time, for me too, although a slow cooked rolled belly joint is also very tasty.
All the best.
