📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Boil them in a pot of salted water until they are soft, about 15-20 minutes.

2

Drain the potatoes and mash them until smooth. Allow the mashed potatoes to cool slightly.

3

Add the shredded cheddar cheese, fresh parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

4

Using your hands, roll the mashed potato mixture into 1.5-inch balls. Set them aside on a plate or tray.

5

Place the all-purpose flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls.

6

Roll each potato ball in the flour, shaking off excess. Then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it thoroughly with breadcrumbs.

7

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

8

Carefully add the potato balls in batches to the hot oil. Fry them for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on all sides.

9

Use a slotted spoon to remove the potato balls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

10

Serve the crunchy potato balls warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, ranch, or spicy mayo. Enjoy!
