How to Make Potato Chees Balls At Home – By Malsha – eLanka
Ingredients:
- 2 cups boiled and mashed potatoes
- 1 cup grated cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3/4 teaspoon pepper powder
- 2 beaten eggs
- Biscuit crumbs, as needed
- Vegetable oil or coconut oil, as needed
- Salt, to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Mixture:
- In a bowl, combine the boiled and mashed potatoes with the chopped onion, garlic powder, pepper powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Form the Balls:
- Take small portions of the potato mixture and shape them into balls. Flatten each ball slightly, place a small amount of grated cheese in the center, and reshape into a ball, ensuring the cheese is completely enclosed.
- Coat the Balls:
- Dip each ball into the beaten eggs, then roll them in the biscuit crumbs until fully coated. Place the coated balls on a tray.
- Fry the Balls:
- Heat oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the coated potato balls until they are golden brown on all sides.
- Serve:
- Remove the fried balls and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite sauce.
Optional Additions:
- Carrot: For added texture and flavor, mix in 1/2 cup of finely grated carrot with the potato mixture.
- Batter: If needed, mix some bread flour and salt into the beaten eggs to make a thicker batter before coating the potato balls.
