Notes

  • Always consider potatoes with high starch as it gives better result after frying. 
  • I personally prefer to take russet potatoes. Alternatively, Yukon gold is good. 
  • Starchy potatoes are good in taste and always retain even frying color. 
  • Never mash potatoes in machine otherwise it will turn to a creamy texture and become difficult to maintain balls without adding any binding agent. 
  • Use big size of cheese inside potato balls if you want melting and bursting cheese effect. 
  • Properly coat the balls with all purpose flour and breadcrumbs for crispy and crunchy frying. 
  • Always fry potato cheese balls at medium temperature. 
  • Never cover balls right after frying as it will get soggy.
