## Steps

1. Peel the potatoes and boil them in lightly salted water until soft.

3. Heat a little olive oil in a pan and gently cook the finely chopped shallot over low heat.
4. Add the carrot and courgette, raise the heat slightly and sauté. (3 min)
5. Add the peas, stir, season with salt and pepper, cover and cook. (15 min)
6. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain and mash them with a potato masher.
7. Add the warm sautéed vegetables, the egg and the grated Parmesan, and mix thoroughly.
8. With slightly damp hands, shape the mixture into balls — the croquettes.
