Lentil Croquettes. Prepare a lentil puree as described in the foregoing recipe, mix this with half the quantity of cooked rice, then spread this on a plate and let cool. Shape on a pastry board with the help of breadcrumbs into even- sized croquettes, round, cork or oblong shapes. Dip them in egg, and crumb carefully. Shape again and fry in hot fat to a nice pale brown colour. Drain, dish up, garnish with parsley, and serve with Tomato or Piquante sauce
