Carrot Patties recipe

I made these two nights ago and they were delightful! Carrots and potatoes seem like an unlikely combination when mixed together, but I am obviously very wrong. It goes without saying that everyone loved your carrot patties.
I added extra black pepper and margarine, a little white pepper and a dash of cayenne and paprika.

1 1/2 cups cooked mashed carrots
1 cup mashed cooked potatoes
2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
All-purpose flour
Hot vegetable oil

Combine first nine ingredients, mixing well. Shape into 8 patties and dust each lightly with flour. Fry in hot oil until browned on both sides; drain on paper towels.

Serves 6 to 8.


Romanesco with Gargonzola
Preparation Time: 10 Mins
Cooking Time: 10 Mins

Serves: 4

Ingredients

1 romanesco, cut into florets
1 tsp plain flour
1/2 cup Gorgonzola cheese, diced
1/4 cup milk
3 tsp butter, softened
2 tbsp brandy
1 tbsp toasted cumin seeds
salt & pepper

Instructions

This recipe is for all those blue cheese lovers, and for those who want to try a variant to the normal cauliflower cheese! Put the romanesco in a saucepan, add cold water, the flour and a pinch of salt and bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 minutes until just tender. Drain and place on a warm serving dish. Meanwhile, put the Gorgonzola, milk, butter and brandy in a blender, add salt and pepper to taste then process until smooth and combined. Spoon the mixture over the romanesco, sprinkle with the toasted cumin seeds and serve immediately.
