Method ⏲️

Golden potato patties with gooey cheese centres and sticky soy glaze.

Step 1: Cook your potatoes

Boil 500 g potatoes in a saucepan of water for 12-15 minutes, until very soft. Drain well, then return them to the hot pan for 1 minute to dry out a little.

Step 2: Make your dough

Mash your hot potatoes until smooth. Mix in 1 tbsp butter, 2 tbsp milk, 3 tbsp cornflour and ½ tsp salt until your dough is soft, smooth and easy to handle.

Step 3: Stuff your patties

Divide your dough into 8 portions. Flatten each one, tuck 10 g shredded mozzarella into the center, seal well, then shape into small patties.

Step 4: Fry your mochi

Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook your patties for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crisp.

Step 5: Glaze & wrap

Mix 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp white wine vinegar and 2 tsp sugar in the pan. Turn your patties through the bubbling glaze for 1-2 minutes. Cut your nori sheets to your preferred size or roughly 10cm by 3cm. Wrap each patty with a strip of nori and tuck in while they’re hot and stretchy.
