Name this dish...
Someone told me about a dish with consists of mashed potatoes put into a tube and squeezed out into small circles, then coated with egg, rolled in breadcrumbs and then deep-fried. What is this dish called?

Croquettes or duchesse. Maybe dauphine (which are cut with
chou paste).

A boxty (pl. boxties) is prepared with raw, grated potatoes, not mashed. See links:
