for frying
In a medium bowl, mix mashed potatoes, shredded green cabbage, and sliced scallions until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small balls, about 2 tablespoons each, and flatten slightly to form croquettes.
Prepare a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
Dip each croquette first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, ensuring an even crust.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
Fry croquettes in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crisp.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
For the dipping sauce, mix mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth.
Serve croquettes warm with the dipping sauce on the side.
