Deep-Fried Potato Croquettes
From Ruth Van Waerebeek’s “Everybody Eats Well in Belgium Cookbook.” Labor intensive, somewhat messy and time-consuming to make, but people rave about these. Golden brown and crunchy on the outside, then mashed potato heaven inside. I’ve done what Ruth recommends: make the croquettes the day before, and just do the deep frying at dinner time.
Belgian Rice Tart (Tarte Au Riz)
This is a flat, quiche like tart which originates from the region around Verviers in Belgium. It is also common in Aachen (Aix-la-Chapelle), a German city at the border to Belgium. I had it first when I visited a friend in Aachen and we walked over to a small monastery in Belgium. Basically this is kind of pizza base with a topping of rice pudding. Not overly sweet but totally addicting…
