Cheese-Stuffed Crispy Potato Patties deliver a shattering golden crust and a molten cheese center, turning humble potatoes into crisp-edged pockets of joy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 large potatoes
  • boiled
  • peeled
  • and diced 1 egg 1 small bunch fresh parsley
  • finely chopped 1 cup shredded cheese (such as mozzarella or mild cheddar) 3–4 tablespoons all-purpose flour Thick cheese blocks or slices (mozzarella or any melting cheese for the center) Seasonings: salt
  • black pepper
  • and chili flakes to taste Cooking oil (for pan-searing or lightly brushing)

Instructions

  1. Mash the base: Place the warm boiled potatoes in a large bowl and mash thoroughly with a fork until fluffy with slight texture remaining. Combine additions: Add the fresh egg
  2. chopped parsley
  3. shredded cheese
  4. all-purpose flour
  5. and seasonings directly to the mashed potatoes. Knead the mixture: Mix and knead by hand until a cohesive
  6. pliable potato dough forms. Shape and stuff: Take a portion of the mixture
  7. flatten it in your palms
  8. place a thick slice of cheese right in the center
  9. and fold the edges over to completely seal it into a smooth patty. Cook to golden: Heat a thin drizzle of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown
  10. puffed
  11. and crisped on the exterior. Serve: Plate immediately while warm so the melted cheese pulls apart cleanly with every bite.

Notes

  • Work with warm potatoes so the egg and flour blend without clumping.
  • Stop kneading as soon as the dough holds together to avoid dense patties.
  • Seal the cheese center tightly so molten cheese stays inside.
  • Maintain medium heat; too high burns the crust before the center warms.
  • Keep patties gently thick so the cheese melts into a luscious pool.
  • Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which steams instead of sears.
