- 4 g dry yeast

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.
