Instructions
- Step 1
Peel the potatoes, cut them into quarters, and boil for about 10 minutes or until completely soft. Drain very well.
- Step 2
Mash the hot potatoes until smooth. Add salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, MSG, and the 4 tbsp of cornstarch. Mix until a soft dough forms. Let it cool slightly so it’s warm but not hot.
- Step 3
Scoop about a teaspoon of potato mixture and roll it into small balls using your hands. Place them on a plate.
- Step 4
Sprinkle 1 tbsp of cornstarch over all the potato balls and gently roll them to coat evenly, this step helps them get extra crispy.
- Step 5
Heat oil on the highest heat. Test with a wooden stick, if bubbles form around it immediately, the oil is ready. Add the potato balls and keep moving them around the entire time so they fry evenly. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Step 6
Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with ketchup.
