Carrot and Potato Croquettes

To prepare the carrot and potato croquettes start steaming the potatoes for approx. 20 minutes until soft.
Leave to cool slightly and then put them through a potato ricer and leave to cool completely.
Add the grated carrots to the potatoes.
Stir in the egg, 1 tbsp sesame seeds, the bread crumbs, salt, pepper and the spices and knead into a smooth dough.
Shape into 20 balls and fry in hot oil.
Stick a piece of vanilla pod into each carrot and potato croquette and serve sprinkled with the remaining sesame seeds and the poppy seeds.
