Ingredients

  • 200 g cooked potato
  • 300 g flour bread flour even better
  • 4 g dry yeast
  • 100 ml vegetable oil for the dough
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 500 ml vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  • Cook the potatoes and mash them. Alternatively you can use a food processor for a smoother texture. Add it to the bowl followed by the flour, the yeast and the salt. Knead the dough and set it aside for an hour.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll the dough until it's about an inch thick. Use a round shape, larger cookie cutter or a simple drinking glass or a mug to cut the dough.
  • You need lots of oil for frying, as you want to cover the dough completely with boiling oil. So bring the oil to boil in a frying pan and fry them, you can add 2-4 at the time, depending on the size of the frying pan. It takes around 2-3 minutes each side.
  • Serve it immediately with your favourite topping.
