  2. Shape the potato mixture into 16 croquettes. Tip the flour onto a plate and season. Lightly beat the egg in a shallow bowl. Put the breadcrumbs into another bowl. Coat the croquettes first in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs.
  3. Heat half the oil in a small frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry half the croquettes for 4-5 minutes, turning, until golden. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper. Repeat with the remaining oil.
  4. Combine the dip ingredients in a small bowl. Season with black pepper. Serve the croquettes hot with the dip alongside.
