Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 50 grams Grated parmesan cheese
- 150 grams Breadcrumbs
- 50 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until they are soft, about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and mash them in a large bowl until smooth. Allow them to cool slightly.
To the mashed potatoes, add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, and grated parmesan cheese. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Shape the mashed potato mixture into small balls, about the size of a ping pong ball.
Set up a breading station: place flour in one shallow dish, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs in a third dish.
Roll each potato ball first in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Make sure each ball is evenly coated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a breadcrumb into the oil; if it sizzles and turns golden brown, the oil is hot enough.
Carefully add the potato balls to the hot oil in batches, without overcrowding the pan. Fry them for 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the potato balls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve the potato balls hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
