CRISPY CRUNCHY POTATO BITES
From super food magazine - I've got these ready to go in the oven at the moment though I scaled back for 4 serves and used 4 garlic cloves instead of 2 since they were very small otherwise made as per recipe. They did recommend desiree potatoes but I used carisma's (a low GI potato). Please note that after making tonight in a non-forced fan oven at 200C it took me 60 minutes to get my potatoes nicely browned though not crisp but that is Carisma potatoes, very hard to get them crisp in this sort of cooking though I have done with shallow frying them as long as they are cut as a very small dice.

Steps:
- Divide the gravy among 8 compartments of an ice cube tray (a silicone one is easiest for removal). Freeze until solid, at least 3 hours or overnight. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- For the mashed potatoes: Put the potatoes into a medium saucepan, cover with cold water and season with salt. Bring the water to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes and mash them or put them through a ricer while still hot. Add the butter and cream; stir until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Shape the potatoes into 8 balls and put on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Pop the frozen gravy cubes out of the tay. Flatten a mashed potato ball in the palm of your hand and press a gravy cube in the center. Press the potatoes around the gravy to encase it completely and reshape into a ball. Repeat with the remaining gravy and potatoes.
- Spread the flour in a shallow bowl. Add the eggs to a second shallow bowl and beat with a pinch of salt. Spread the stuffing crumbs in a third bowl. Roll each ball in the flour, then the egg, then the stuffing crumbs. Return to the baking sheet and refrigerate to firm up while you heat the oil, about 15 minutes.
- Heat 2 inches of oil in a Dutch oven to 325 degrees F. Fry the croquettes in 2 batches, until deep golden brown, about 7 minutes per batch, letting the oil return to temperature in between batches. Drain on paper towels. Season with salt and serve hot.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat one Frigidaire Gallery® Double Wall Oven to 425°F. Coat a 3-quart shallow baking dish with 1 teaspoon oil. 2. In a large saucepan, cover the potatoes with cold water by 2 inches.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the panko, ½ cup Parmesan, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. 4. Drain the potatoes and return to the saucepan. Set over low heat and let stand until dry, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Mash in the milk and cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Fold in the remaining ½ cup Parmesan and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. 5. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the mashed potatoes.
