FAQ:

Can I make these in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the sticks ahead of time, shape them, and refrigerate them for up to a few hours before frying.

Can I make these without cornstarch?
Cornstarch helps bind the ingredients and gives the sticks their crispy texture. If you don’t have cornstarch, you could try using potato starch or all-purpose flour as a substitute, though the texture may vary slightly.

Can I freeze these potato cheese sticks?
Yes, you can freeze the shaped sticks before frying. Just place them on a baking sheet to freeze individually, then transfer them to a freezer bag. When ready to eat, fry them directly from frozen.
