Steps:
- Tip the potatoes into a medium saucepan of cold water, season well with salt and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cook for 15 mins until the potatoes can be easily pierced with the tip of a knife. Drain, steam-dry for a couple of minutes, then mash with the butter and cayenne. Season to taste and leave to cool a little.
- While the mash cools, tip the flour into one bowl and season well, then tip the egg into another bowl and the breadcrumbs into a third. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
- Flatten about 1 tbsp mash into an oval in the palm of your hand. Dot a bit of the chilli jam into the centre, top with a cube of cheese, then form the mash around the filling to encase it. Place on the tray and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Coat the croquettes in the flour, then the egg and breadcrumbs, then return to the tray. Will keep, covered in the fridge, for up to a day or frozen for up to three months.
- Line a second baking tray with kitchen paper. Fill a small saucepan no more than two-thirds full with oil and heat to 180C or until a cube of bread browns in 20 seconds once dropped in. Fry the croquettes in batches for 1-2 mins (or 2-3 mins from frozen) until deep golden and crisp. Drain on the kitchen-paper-lined tray, sprinkle with salt, then keep warm in a low oven while you cook the rest. Serve with extra sweet chilli jam for dipping.

SPICY SWEET POTATO AND CHEDDAR CROQUETTES
Sweet potatoes and cheese are flavored with cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper and cayenne for warmth, smokiness and a little bit of a kick. Once these croquettes are breaded and deep fried, a crisp crust delicately encapsulates the soft and gooey mixture within. They are very straightforward to prepare, but the process makes them a labor of love, perfect for entertaining or simply showing off your kitchen prowess.

Steps:
- Put the sweet potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt in a pot and cover with an inch or two of water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain the potatoes, transfer to a bowl, mash with a fork, and let cool for at least 30 minutes. (You can also do this step ahead and let the mashed sweet potatoes cool in the refrigerator overnight.)
- Add the cheese, flour, cumin, paprika, black pepper and cayenne to the mashed sweet potatoes and mix until evenly combined. Use a medium cookie scoop (a scant 2 tablespoons) to portion the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.
- Prepare to bread the croquettes: Set up a standard breading procedure in three bowls - flour, egg-and-oil mixture and bread crumbs.
- Dip each piece in the flour, shaking off any excess, in the egg mixture (turning it a few times to make sure it is completely coated), then in the bread crumbs. Set each breaded croquette on the baking sheet. Refreeze the finished, breaded croquettes until firm. (These can live in your freezer for months.)
- Add enough neutral oil to a deep-sided pot or pan to reach a depth of 1 1/2 to 2 inches, and heat over medium until shimmering, or when a thermometer reads between 325 and 350 degrees. Working in batches, fry the frozen croquettes, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned all over and piping hot in the center, about 5 minutes. (When frying, it's important to moderate the heat to keep as steady a temperature as possible. Adding frozen products to hot oil brings the temperature down, as does crowding.)
- Using a slotted spoon, remove cooked croquettes to a baking rack and immediately sprinkle with a little salt before serving.
BACON-CHEDDAR POTATO CROQUETTES
Instead of throwing out leftover mashed potatoes, use them to make this potato croquette recipe. The little baked balls are yummy with ranch dressing, barbecue sauce or Dijon mayonnaise for dipping. -Pamela Shank, Parkersburg, West Virginia

BAKED BACON AND CHEDDAR CROQUETTES
This is a healthier take on the usual deep-fried croquettes. The picture shows the croquettes before I decided to toast the breadcrumbs, otherwise the color would have been better.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

- While the potatoes are boiling, pan fry the bacon until crispy, then dry on a paper towel.
- Mash potatoes by hand or run through a ricer.
- Chop bacon into small pieces, then combine with shredded cheese and potatoes. Roll mixture into 15 equal-sized balls; an ice cream scoop is a good way to do this.

- Bake for 10 minutes, then turn over and bake for another 10 minutes.
