Crispy Cheesy Potatoes
Description
For cheese lovers, this dish is a real find! Mashed potatoes are mixed with several types of cheese, an egg, and corn flour. Then, into boiling oil, or using a pastry bag, you squeeze out strips and fry them. But I didn't really like this version: the strips turn out very thin, and I don't particularly like using a piping bag. So a spoon worked perfectly: shape small balls and deep-fry them. It is very, very tasty. You can barely taste the potatoes, but you can really taste the wonderful variety of cheeses! Be sure to make this amazing dish. It can be served warm or chilled.
