Equipment

  • Knife & chopping board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Frying pan
  • Slotted spoon
  • Paper towels

Ingredients
  

  • 350g potatoes (peeled and chopped)
  • 150g carrots (chopped)
  • 20g green onions (finely sliced)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/5 tsp black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 3 tbsp wheat flour
  • Cooking oil (for frying)

Instructions
 

  • Prep Veggies:
    Chop potatoes and carrots into small pieces. Mix with 1/2 tsp salt and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Rinse & Drain:
    Rinse the salted vegetables with water and squeeze out excess moisture thoroughly using a kitchen towel or your hands.
  • Mix Batter:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine drained potatoes and carrots, green onions, pepper, salt, eggs, cornstarch, and flour. Mix well until you get a sticky, thick batter.
  • Shape:
    Scoop small portions and shape into balls or dollops using a spoon.
  • Fry:
    Heat cooking oil over medium-low heat. Fry the balls for about 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
  • Serve:
    Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with ketchup, chili sauce, or your favorite dip.

Notes

Pro Tips & Variations:

  • Crispier Results: Squeeze out as much moisture as possible after salting to avoid soggy texture.
  • Add Flavor: Sprinkle grated cheese or chili flakes into the batter for extra kick.
  • Air-Fryer Option: Lightly coat with oil and cook in the air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for 12–15 minutes.
  • Dipping Ideas: Serve with garlic mayo, spicy ketchup, or sweet chili sauce.
