Potatoes have become one of the best selling vegetables on the planet. This vegetable is used to prepare various dishes. In addition to the usual mashed potatoes, fried potatoes, baked goods and desserts are created from the vegetable.
Although earlier potatoes were not so in demand. The fact is that until the XIX century, people did not know how to properly use potatoes. It came to the point that peasants were massively poisoned by this vegetable.
Later, people began to be educated about how to eat potatoes correctly. Soon the vegetable was loved by many. Now it is difficult to imagine the culinary world without potatoes. Let’s make potato pies with cheese.
Ingredients for potato patties:
- Potatoes – 6 pcs;
- Salt – 1 tsp;

- Parsley – a bundle;
- Flour – 220 g;
- Mozzarella cheese – 100 g.
Preparation of potato patties:
Boil peeled potatoes until tender, then salt and turn into mashed potatoes. Break an egg into the mashed potatoes and mix the ingredients.
Chop parsley and add to the mashed potatoes, mix. Pour flour and baking powder into the puree, knead elastic and not sticky dough with your hands.
Leave the dough in the refrigerator for 20 minutes under a plastic wrap
.
In the meantime, cut the mozzarella into small pieces.
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and shape into rolls. Roll each one into flatbreads about 5 mm thick. Divide the tortillas in half, put cheese on ½ part of each half-circle.
Cover the other half with the cheese, sealing it inside the dough.
Do the same procedure with the other halves of the tortillas.
In a frying pan in vegetable oil fry the patties on each side until browned.
The result is simple patties with cheese.
Instead of cheese filling, you can use any other filling, for example, cabbage filling.
