Prepare the Potatoes:

  1. Cook the potatoes : Wash the potatoes and pierce them with a fork. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 7 minutes. Alternatively, cook in boiling water until tender.
  2. Wait and peel : Let the potatoes cool for 5 minutes after cooking, then peel them.

Knead and Season:

  1. Add the cheese : Add the grated mozzarella cheese to the dough and mix again.

Form the Tartlets:

  1. Shape the tartlets : With oiled hands, form the dough into balls and roll each one in breadcrumbs. Flatten the balls to form tartlets.
  2. Prepare for frying : Arrange the tartlets on a cutting board or plate. This recipe makes approximately 14 tartlets.

Frying the Tartlets:

  1. Fry the tartlets : Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the tartlets until golden brown on both sides.
  2. Drain excess oil : Place the fried tartlets on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.

Serve:

  1. Serve with sauce : Serve the hot tarts with ketchup, mayonnaise or your favorite sauce.

    Important Tips

    • Storage : The tartlets can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days before frying.
    • Customization : Experiment with different seasonings and cheeses to vary the flavor of the tarts.
    • Extra crunch : For an even crunchier texture, replace the breadcrumbs with panko.
