These are crispy potato cakes filled with bolognese sauce and melty mozzarella cheese. They're made by sandwiching the filling between mashed potato dough, pan-frying until golden, and served with a side salad.
Ingredients
- 3 cups mashed potato
- ½ cup (75g) plain flour
- 1 egg
-
sea salt and white pepper, to season
-
1 cup bolognese meat sauce, cold
- 1 cup (100g) mozzarella cheese, grated
- ¼ cup olive oil
-
side salad to serve
Directions
Combine mashed potato, flour and egg in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper and mix until well combined.
- Divide dough into 16 portions, then lightly flour a work surface. Press 1 portion out into a round, about 5mm thick, then place on the work surface.
Place a heaped tablespoon of mince mixture in the centre, then some of the cheese.
- Press another portion out, then lay on top of the filled dough, pinching around the edges to seal.
- Place on a floured tray and repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Cook patties in batches for 3-4 minutes each side, until golden brown.
- Serve potato cakes with a side salad if you like.
