Vegetable croquettes

These croquettes have a wonderful and subtle ginger flavour, very nice. The following will feed 5 people:

Ingredients:

1 small cauliflower, cut into small florets
600g potatoes, diced
70g frozen peas
1 small piece of ginger, finely chopped (~2-3 tsp)
3 green chillies, finely chopped
dried bread crumbs to coat

1. Boil the cauliflower and potatoes for 7 minutes, add the peas, and boil for another 5 min. Drain.

2. Mash the veg together and add the ginger and chillies.

3. Shape into patties, coat with the bread crumbs and fry on both sides in groundnut oil. Serve on preheated plates.


TO SERVE:

I had too much ginger so as a side dish I did the following:

- cook some brown rice with some ginger in the boiling water. Drain the rice and discard.
- boil some carrot sticks/slices
- finely chop any ginger leftovers
- add some butter to a saucepan and melt with the rice, carrots and ginger.

It is truly delicious. I will definitely make this again!
