- Prepare the Cauliflower and Potatoes:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and boil for 10 minutes or until soft. Drain and mash thoroughly.
- Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain and mash the potatoes.
- Combine the Mixture:
- In a large bowl, mix the mashed cauliflower and potatoes.
- Add the butter, milk, grated cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well combined.
- Shape the Croquettes:
- Form the mixture into small logs or round patties, depending on your preference.
- Bread the Croquettes:
- Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a separate bowl.
- Dip each croquette into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs.
- Fry the Croquettes:
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Fry the croquettes in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 3–4 minutes per side.
- Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Serve:
- Garnish with chopped parsley and candied nuts, if using. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
