Cooking Steps
1
- Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt.
- Peel potato and cut into large chunks.

- Add the paprika spice blend and mash until smooth and allow to cool.
2
- Meanwhile, thinly slice red apple into wedges.
- Thinly slice red radish.
- Slice lemon into wedges.
- Finely chop garlic.

- To pan with mashed potato add the garlic, bacon, shredded mozzarella and generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Shape potato mixture into 2cm x 7cm thick oval croquetas (roughly 6 per person).
