dish is made with Duchesse potatoes and un- sweetened choux pastry. In the home kitchen a slight "short cut" is made, as in the following recipe:
For the choux posle, bring 2 oz. butter and pini water to the boil. Remove and stir in 3 oz plain flour. Beat until smooth, leave to cool, then beat in 2 eggs.
Meanwhile. boil 4 medium-size potatoesi and dry them very well over a low heat. Rub them through a sieve, add 1⁄2 oz. butter and a pinch of grated nut- meg and blend them with the choux pastry. The potatoes and choux pastry should be of equal amounts,
Escoffier says that the mixture should be moulded in the form of small cylinders, rolled in beaten
egg and breadcrumbs, Tried to in a golden brown deep hot fat and well drained on absorbent paper. Sprinkle the cooked "cylinders"
with salt.
For a more exciting way of serving these croquettes pass them through beaten egg as above, then roll them in chopped blanched almonds instead of crumbs.
