Mix filling:
In a bowl, combine mashed potatoes, cheese, green onions, salt, and pepper.
Stir until well mixed.
Shape the balls:
Scoop about 1–2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into balls (about golf ball size).
Place on a baking sheet and chill in the fridge or freezer for 15–30 minutes to firm up.
Bread the balls:
Roll each ball in flour, then dip in beaten egg, then coat with breadcrumbs. Press gently to help breadcrumbs stick.
Fry:
Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C).
Fry potato balls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy (about 2–3 minutes per batch).
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve hot:
Serve with ketchup, sour cream, ranch, or spicy aioli.
