How to prepare Potato Bites with special sauce

To prepare these delicious snacks, you will need:

Ingredients:

-600 g of potatoes
-50 g + 3 g of cornstarch/flour
-100 ml of water
-50 ml of soy sauce
-10 ml of balsamic vinegar
-Garlic
-Ginger
-Tomato concentrate
-Oil
-Salt

Preparation:

  1. Let’s start by preparing our potatoes. Wash them, peel them and cut them into pieces. Then we boil them until they are well cooked.
  2. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and place them in a large bowl. We will use a fork or a potato masher to mash. Add a little salt to taste.
  3. Add 50 g of cornstarch or flour to the mashed potatoes and mix well until you obtain a uniform dough.
  4. Now, we will take an empty bottle and clean it thoroughly. Make sure it is completely dry.
  5. On a plate, place the remaining 3 g of cornstarch or flour. This will help the potato dough not to stick to the bottle.
  6. With the bottle prepared, take small portions of potato dough and form round bites with your hands. Then, use the spout of the bottle to make a mark in the center of each bite. This will give them a unique shape and texture.

Cooking

  1. In a large frying pan, heat a little oil to brown the potato bites. After forming the bites with the help of the bottle, we brown them in a hot pan with a little oil, they should be golden and crispy on both sides.
  2. Meanwhile, on the other hand, prepare a delicious sauce by mixing soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger and a little tomato paste. This will add a touch of unique flavor to your bites.
  3. Once they’re ready, it’s the perfect time to add the delicious sauce right into the pan. This will allow the bites to absorb all the flavors of the sauce and obtain an even more delicious flavor. Cook everything together for a few minutes.
  4. Serve the potato bites with the prepared sauce and enjoy this delicious and creative recipe.

And there you have it! You have turned a simple empty bottle into a culinary tool to create potato bites that are sure to surprise everyone with their unique flavor and presentation. Enjoy your culinary creations!
