Servings: 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large potatoes boiled and diced
  • 4 slices sandwich bread
  • ½ tsp salt or to taste
  • ½ tsp red chili flakes
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1½ tbsp fresh coriander finely chopped
  • 1½ tbsp corn flour
  • Oil for deep frying

Method
 

  1. Boil the potatoes until soft. Dice them and place them on a large plate.
  2. Dip each bread slice in water for about a second, then squeeze out the excess water with your hands. Tear or cut the bread into small pieces.
  3. Put the bread, salt, chili flakes, oregano, coriander, and corn flour into the potatoes. Mix everything together with your hands.
  4. Divide the mixture into small portions and roll each one into a ball. Press each ball down a little with a fork and make four marks on top.
  5. Heat the oil over medium heat. Carefully add 4–5 potato bites at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 5–6 minutes, turning them occasionally until golden brown all over.
  6. Once the potato bites are golden brown and crisp, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
