Ingredients
- 600 g peeled potatoes (The post specifies peeled potatoes; boil until soft, then mash.)
- 2 tbsp butter (Melted.)
- 5 tbsp flour
- 60 g mozzarella (Use grated or shredded mozzarella so it can be placed in the center.)
- 30 g chorizo (Shredded or chopped for the filling.)
- 5 ml olive oil (For drizzling or greasing the cling film.)
Steps
- 1
Peel the potatoes if they have not already been peeled. Boil them until soft, then drain them thoroughly.
- 2
Mash the drained potatoes well until they form a smooth purée.
- 3
Add the melted butter and flour to the mashed potatoes. Mix first with a fork, then use your hands until the mixture becomes smooth and forms a soft dough. Shape the dough into one large ball.
- 4
Lay out a sheet of cling film and drizzle the olive oil over it to grease the surface.
- 5
Place the potato dough ball on the greased cling film. Press it out with your hands into a large round circle.
- 6
Place the mozzarella and chorizo in the center of the potato circle.
- 7
Use the cling film to fold or roll the potato dough over the filling from all four sides. Press the dough together carefully and seal any gaps so the filling is enclosed.
- 8
Place the filled potato parcel in the air fryer and cook at 240°C for 7–8 minutes.
- 9
Turn the parcel with a spatula, then air-fry for another 7–8 minutes, until crisp on the outside and soft inside.
- 10
Serve once cooked. The source advises eating this large, hot parcel with a knife and fork; allow care when eating because the filling may be very hot.
Notes
The post states that the original version may be deep-fried, but this author's version uses an air fryer. The transcript mentions alternative fillings such as shredded chicken or ground beef, but the author's written ingredient list specifies mozzarella and chorizo, so those alternatives are not included. The source does not specify whether 240 degrees is Celsius; it is presented here as 240°C because the recipe is otherwise written using metric measurements. The source's stated nutrition is 480 calories, 20g protein, 64g carbohydrates, and 16g fat per serving.
