Potato croquettes

Recipe appetizers for 3 people based on Potatoes.

Preparation:

Preparation: Put 8 large potatoes with skin on to cook in the pan. When cooked, peel and mash them. Add to the mass: 1 egg yolk, salt, a little grated nutmeg and 1/2 tablespoon of corn starch (Maizena). Knead this mass well while it is still hot, putting a little flour on the table. Lay this mixture and form a cylinder 2-3 cm thick; cut it into sticks of about 5 cm each. Dip the sticks in the beaten egg and then in the breadcrumbs. Dip them in the oil (as for french fries), until they are golden brown and piping hot.
