Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 egg white
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs
• 2 quarts oil for deep frying
• 4 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
• 1 pinch Italian-style seasoning

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Place potatoes in the water and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash.

Step 3

Mix Italian-style seasoning and egg yolk into the mashed potatoes. Allow potato mixture to cool approximately 10 minutes, or until it may be safely handled.

Step 4

Place flour, egg white and dry bread crumbs in three separate small bowls. Roll potato mixture into 1 inch logs or balls. Cover in flour, dip in egg white and coat with bread crumbs.

Step 5

Carefully lower small batches of the coated potatoes into the deep fryer. Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
