Potato Croquettes.
2 cups mashed potatoes, free from lumps; 2 beaten eggs; 1 tablespoonful melted butter; salt and pepper to taste; a little flour.
Mix all well together; heat, and stir over the fire until smoking hot. Let it get cold, and make into small rolls flattened at the ends. Roll in flour and fry to a good brown. Drain off upon paper and eat hot.
