How to Make White Bean Croquettes

Preheat oven to 200°F (93°C).
Mash 1 (15-ounce) can of white beans with a fork until mostly smooth, leaving some texture. Add 1-2 tablespoons of the bean liquid if needed to reach desired consistency.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed beans, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
Gradually add 1/2 cup breadcrumbs or cornmeal, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until you form a thick, yet manageable dough.
Shape the mixture into 6-8 hamburger-shaped patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the croquettes for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Transfer the cooked croquettes to a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven until all are cooked. Serve warm or at room temperature.
