Croquettes are vegetable patties that are pan-fried in a small amount of oil. This version uses potatoes, carrots, onion, and celery and are mighty tasty

1 large russet potato (unpeeled), shredded (1 lb/500 g) 1 ⁄3 cup (75 mL) plain bread crumbs 2 carrots, peeled and shredded 1 yellow onion, chopped 1 stalk celery, chopped 1 large egg, beaten 1 tsp (5 mL) dried parsley 1 ⁄4 tsp (1 mL) plus 1 ⁄8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt 1 ⁄4 tsp (1 mL) ground black pepper 1 ⁄4 cup (60 mL) olive oil

TO STORE: In each of six containers, add two croquettes. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

TO SERVE: If frozen, thaw in the refrigerator overnight. To reheat, microwave uncovered on High for 30 seconds. Allow 2 minutes for the heat to distribute before removing the container from the microwave. Serve warm.

TOBY'S TIP: Leaving the peel on the potatoes provides more fiber.
