Fried potato balls

Fried potato balls

Overview

In fact, it is a modified version of Teacher Meng’s fried potato balls. It seems that I have made the original version once before, and also used a frying pan. I'm really annoyed with the fryer basket because all the soft stuff will sink through the gap. In order to prevent the potato balls from sinking, drag the egg tart mold over and put the potato balls in the mold and fry them. The tart mold is a bit too big, one ball is empty and two balls are too crowded. The potato balls looked very firm, but when heated, they expanded and collapsed, and finally each one was deformed. The air fryer will never have the advantage of an oil fryer for this kind of soft stuff - it sets quickly and stays put. With the oil supporting the meatballs, the meatballs will not be deformed by their own weight, but can expand in all directions under the action of heat. And, to be fair, using an oil pan saves time. It only takes a few minutes for these meatballs to be browned all over and the oil is controlled. However, in the air fryer, they stayed there for about 20 minutes, probably more. The only thing that makes people feel relaxed is that there is no big pot of oil. . . .
