These are the second part of the healthy snacks, as with the veggie option, they are great hot or cold, warmed under the grill or fried until crispy!
Ingredients
1 large old potato
1 large sweet potato
2 onions
4 cloves garlic
1 courgette
teaspoon mustard powder
1 packet of ham of your choice
two pinches of vegetable stock
1 pork stock cube
1 egg
a good handful of flat leaf parsley and sage, finely chopped
A sprinkling of Ras el Hanout seasoning
Frylight
Method
Pre heat the oven to 180C
Peel and boil the potatoes, once soft, drain and mash. I use a potato ricer to get lovely smooth mash. While the potatoes are cooking, peel and chop the onion and garlic then sautee both together in frylight until the onion is nicely caramelized.
Top and tail the courgette, then grate. Add the cooked onion to the mix and mix together, then add the mash and give the whole lot a good mix so the courgette is cooked by the heat from the onion and mash.
Trim the fat off the ham and chop into smallish chunks, then add this to the vegetables and add the stock and stock cube and a little lemon juice. Mix well and add the egg and mix that in.
Make the whole mix into patties and bake on the top shelf of the oven for 20 mins, turning once.
Eat with your choice of salad.
