Crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside, these Japanese croquettes are filled with a comforting mixture of sweet “kabocha” and sharp cheddar, spiced with smoked paprika and cayenne. Kabocha is a type of winter squash, and many refer to it as “Japanese pumpkin.” Unlike Western pumpkins, kabocha’s vibrant orange flesh has a much sweeter flavor. You can eat these croquettes as a snack or pair them with a big green salad for a heartier meal. If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for three days or the freezer for up to a month.
