These fried mashed potato balls are crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, making them a delightful snack or side dish.
Ingredients: 2 cups mashed potatoes. 1/2 cup shredded cheese. 1/4 cup chopped chives. 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. 1 egg. Oil for frying. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: In a bowl, mix together the beaten egg, shredded cheese, chopped chives, breadcrumbs, and mashed potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste, and then mix everything together well. Form little balls out of small amounts of the mixture. In a deep fryer or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-low heat. With care, put the potato balls into the hot oil. Fry for three to four minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Before putting the fried potato balls on a paper towel-lined plate to drain, take them out of the oil. Enjoy while hot!
