C4K Mashies

Makes: approximately 24

Ingredients:

• 2 cup mashed potato
• 1 egg yolk OR 1 tablespoon corn flour
• ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
• ½ teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 cup panko crumbs

 

Method:

• Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl
• In a large mixing bowl combined the chilled mashed potato will all remaining ingredients until well combined
• Using damp hands roll a tablespoon of the potato mixture into a ball shape using the palms of your hands
• Roll the ball directly into the breadcrumbs until well coated
• Repeat until all the potato is used
• Heat 2-4 tablespoons of oil in a heavy based frying pan over a medium heat and shallow fry the mashie until golden brown, approximately 3 minutes; turn the mashie regularly to ensure you get an even crunchy brown coating.

 

Recipe Notes:

• When shallow frying the best way to maintain a round shape is to ¼ quarter turn the mashie rather than flipping of you will end up with a mini mashie patty
• To maintain the perfect round shape deep fry in 190 degrees Celsius oil for 4-5 minutes until golden and crispy
• For a healthier alternative generous spray the mashies with rice bran oil cooking spray and over bake in a preheated 180 degrees Celsius over for about 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy
• Best served fresh, but you can store in the fridge in an airtight container for a maximum of 3 days
• This recipe is freezer friendly with the uncooked prepared mashies.   You can also freezer cooked ones however they are best served freshly cooked.
