Potato and Carrot Balls

This recipe is so so versatile...the basic idea is there and you can add any ingredients(corn kernels..tuna...peas...spinach...the possibilities are endless) you want to it and just adjust the quantities as you go along...i had some potatoes and carrots i had to get rid off so i made potato and carrot balls.....2 carrots i used and a cup of Parmesan cheese...it's also a really good idea for using leftover mash potato...












Ingredients for basic potato balls:
4 medium sized potatoes
1 egg
salt and pepper for seasoning
breadcrumbs to coat

Method:
1. Boil potatoes until soft. Peel and mash them.
2. Cool the mash. Better in the fridge.
3. When ready to use, add seasoning, egg and other ingredients.
4. Shape the mash into balls and coat them in breadcrumbs.
5. Deep fry or shallow fry the balls until they are golden brown.

Jap mayo is always good for dipping....
