Yeh these are so simple and so cheap to make I used Tesco Value instant mash at 20p and some couscous that was 29p from B&M Bargains. Made a whole tray full of them for under 50p! x

My family didn't like these. They were very crispy on the outside. What did I do wrong.

 

[Tracy831]

Yeah I found some of the cous cous went a bit too crunchy,won't be making them again which is a shame because they did look good !

 

[emma_partington27]

I love um did u make up the cous cous first? i made these for my taster day at group n everyone loved them then i found out off a friend tht my consultant sed was it so hard to make it with proper potatoes!! And to my face she was all ohh there gorgeous cudnt get enuff ov um! Wouldnt mind but it took me a while to make enuff for everyone and i got the recioe off here which suggests smash i love um lol

 

[icklerockchick]

People who said they were too crunchy maybe you left them in a bit long? The potato and couscous are already cooked so really just heating them up and giving them a bit of crunch to them? I liked them with smash and wouldn't bother peeling and boiling and mashing potatoes just to make these, unless it was just using up leftover potatoes! How rude of your consultant! X

I made these a few weeks back and never cooked the cous cous, nearly broke my teeth on them!

Stupid me haha, will deff try again and cook the cous cous first x

 

[Chiana]

OOh looks yummy, I'm going to try some fishcakes with it, wonder if it would work for garlic mushrooms and other breadcrumbed things.
Don't like garlic myself though, just thinking of my sis.

I will deffo give these a try - like the idea of adding cottage cheese or cheese from HEA.

I made these last night, they were nice! I made mine with normal mash that i made up i dont like smash i like the real thing lol i put some dry cous cous in a bowl and added 2 tsp of italian herbs/salt/pepper for flavour and then just enough water to coat it and wish id added more cus it was still a tad 'too' crunchy but they tasted good, and even my bf ate them who isnt doing slimming world thanks for the recipe

I had my heA of cheese grated on my plate next to them as i was having pitta with fajita mix veg n quorn so had some left over on my plate after putting some in my pitta and put it on the croquettes and it tasted amazing so think i will save one of my HE's to put cheese in next time.
