ABOUT Amaranth Potato Thyme Croquette RECIPE

For those who love to eat, it is hard to resist potatoes! This is a creation out of a simple philosophy: Health during weekdays, Indulgence during weekends! This croquette combines the goodness of protein and carbs and is a gluten free baked treat on a rainy day that also serves as a healthy after school snack. Amaranth not only gives structure and flavour to the croquette but is also crisp, crunchy and nutty on the outside! The origin of both amaranth and potatoes are traced back to Peru, the discovery being about 8000 – 10000 years ago. Enjoy this simple treat with your evening tea.
