Warm, crispy fried potatoes will always be a hit with children and adults alike! Here’s a dish no one will be able to turn down.
YIELDS APPROXIMATELY 60 BITES
- 2 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- pinch kosher salt
- 1 egg
- 3 Tbsp oil, plus more for frying
- ¼ cup Goldbaum’s Almond Milk
- ¼ cup potato starch
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp kosher salt, plus more for serving
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Place potato cubes in a medium pot. Cover with water and season with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 20 minutes, until fork-tender.
Drain potatoes and return to pot. Mash until smooth. Add egg, oil, almond milk, potato starch, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
With a small scoop, form potato mixture into 1-inch (2.5-cm) balls. Dust your hands with potato starch to roll the mixture into perfectly round balls.
Heat 2 inches (5 cm) of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Place a few balls in the oil (be careful not to crowd the pot) and fry until they’re golden brown on all sides (about 2–3 minutes per side). Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Continue until all the balls are fried. Season with salt before serving.
Note: These are great served with ketchup, garlic mayo, or any dressing of your choice. They’re also delicious solo!
