FAQ:
Can I bake these instead of frying?
Yes! To bake the potato balls, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the breaded potato balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Can I freeze these potato balls?
Absolutely! Freeze the unbaked potato balls on a baking sheet for about 30 minutes, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. When ready to cook, fry or bake directly from frozen, adding extra time if necessary.
Can I use mashed potatoes instead of fresh ones?
Yes! You can use leftover mashed potatoes for this recipe, just ensure they are thick and not too watery for better binding.
