Crispy potato balls:
Crispy fried potato balls filled with mozzarella and pepperoni, tossed in sticky hot honey and showered with parmesan — crunchy outside, fluffy inside, outrageously addictive party food.
Method
Boil the potatoes in well-salted water until very tender. Drain well, let any excess steam evaporate, then mash until completely smooth. Season with salt.
Add the cornflour, mozzarella, crispy pepperoni, garlic, parsley, oregano and plenty of black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Roll the mixture into 2cm balls — you should get around 40. Chill for 20 minutes to help the balls hold their shape (optional but recommended).
Heat the oil to 180°C and fry the balls in batches for 2–3 minutes, turning gently, until golden and crisp. Drain briefly.
While hot, toss the balls in hot honey and finish with finely grated Parmesan. Enjoy immediately.
