Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water over medium heat. Once boiling, add your potato chunks and cook for about 15 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.
- Drain the water and let the potatoes cool slightly before mashing them until smooth, ensuring a creamy texture.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm mashed potatoes with a sprinkle of sugar and a bit of cornstarch. Mix thoroughly until everything is well blended.
- Take about 90 grams of the potato mixture and flatten it into a disc shape. Place mozzarella cheese in the center and encase it with the potato mixture.
- Heat cooking oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the formed pancakes in the skillet and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Once fried, remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Let them cool slightly before serving.
- Serve your crispy pancakes with a dipping sauce of your choice.

Notes
Customize with additional ingredients like bacon or herbs. Use starchy potatoes like Russets for fluffier pancakes. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
