Potato croquettes

 When we were living in France, we used to have some "countryside type" of lunches, or late breakfasts. Since moving to Canada, I have left that tradition behind and never made any of those "menus" anymore. Was it because I was too busy combining adaptation to a new country, learning a new language, a full time job and 2 young children? Perhaps ..... I'm not sure.

All I know is that this morning I woke up with the desire to make one of those traditional lunches we used to eat in France.

I grabbed 3 potatoes, 1 sweet potato and 1 onion in the pantry, 1/2 cup of gluten-free flour, 1 teaspoon of gluten-free baking powder, 3 eggs, salt, pepper a few tablespoons of almond milk.

I shredded the potatoes and chopped the onion.

I combined all the dry ingredients in a bowl, added on the eggs: stirred until combined and I added the potatoes/onion mix. I mixed well.

Hot pan, I put some butter to melt and dropped 1 large spoon of the mixture. Flattened it and let it cook until crisp on one side before flipping it over. I ended up with about 12 croquettes, that I kept warm in the oven as I was cooking the next batch and the fried eggs.

I platted with 2 fried eggs and a slice of ham.

DE-LI-CIOUS !!
