🧀 Cheesy Stuffed Potato Patties: Crispy, Melty, and Irresistible!
🍳 Instructions:
1. Mash the Potatoes:
-
Boil the potatoes until soft, then drain and mash them in a large bowl. Let them cool slightly.
2. Prepare the Filling:
-
In a small bowl, mix the shredded cheese with 1 tablespoon of breadcrumbs. This will help keep the cheese from melting out completely when you fry the patties.
3. Form the Patties:
-
Take a small portion of the mashed potatoes and flatten it in your hand to form a small disk.
-
Place a teaspoon of the cheese mixture in the center and fold the edges of the potato over to seal the cheese inside.
-
Shape the filled potato into a smooth, round patty.
-
Repeat for the remaining mixture.
4. Coat and Fry:
-
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg, and in another shallow bowl, add the remaining breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
-
Dip each potato patty first into the egg, then coat it in the seasoned breadcrumbs.
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
-
Fry the patties in batches for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy on the outside.
5. Serve:
-
Place the patties on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
-
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
