Instructions

      Cut the potato into 1 cm cubes. Steam the potato until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the steamer and allow to cool slightly before handling.

      In a pan, heat oil over medium heat and fry the croquettes until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 5 minutes. The croquette may be fragile, so allow one side to crisp before flipping and finishing the other side.
