POTATO-CHEESE CROQUETTES


Ingredients
 1 kg potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks  
 4 tablespoons butter    
 4 eggs    
 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese    
 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley    
 1 1/2 teaspoon salt    
 1/2 teaspoon pepper    
 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs, seasoned.    
 2 cups light olive oil    


Method 
Boil the potatoes until they are tender, then drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes and beat in the butter, 2 eggs, the cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper. Cover and chill for at least an hour in the refrigerator.


In a small mixing blow, whip the other 2 eggs. Form the potato mixture into small walnut- size balls. Dip and coat the croquettes in the egg, then in the bread crumbs. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over low to medium heat. Fry the croquettes in the oil until the are golden brown. Serve immediately.
