Potato Donuts
To prepare a delicious recipe for cheesy mashed potatoes, we start by choosing quality ingredients. First, select 'Carmen' or 'Yukon Gold' potatoes, which have a creamy texture and a slightly sweet taste, perfect for this recipe. Make sure you have fresh eggs, flour, and cheese, preferably cottage cheese or mozzarella, which melt beautifully and provide an intense flavor. Start by washing the potatoes well under cold water to remove any impurities. Then, place them in a pot with cold water and add a teaspoon of salt. Let them boil over medium heat, being careful not to boil them too hard, so they don't break apart. The boiling time will vary between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Test if they are ready by inserting a fork; if it goes in easily, the potatoes are done. Once the potatoes are boiled, remove them from the water and let them cool slightly so they can be peeled easily. Once they have cooled, remove the skin and mash them using a fork or a potato masher until you get a smooth and homogeneous puree. In a large bowl, add the potato puree, beaten eggs, flour, and the chosen cheese. Mix the ingredients well, ensuring everything is evenly incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste, considering that the cheese may already add a bit of saltiness. After you have obtained a homogeneous mixture, start forming balls the size of a walnut, being careful not to make them too large for even frying. In a deep skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the potato balls, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them until they become golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Use a spatula to carefully turn them. After frying, remove them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. These delicious balls are perfect both warm and cold, and can be served as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy them alongside a yogurt sauce or a fresh salad for a contrast of textures and flavors. This simple and tasty recipe will surely become a favorite among your loved ones.
