Potato Pampushki With Cheese
Potato Pampushki with Cheese Filling
Potato Pampushki With Cheese Filling
Prep time: 20 mins
Cook time: 15 mins
Total time: 35 mins
Serves: 16 pampushki
Ingredients
2½ cups mashed potatoes
1½ lbs of potatoes, about 4 medium-sized (preferably Yukon Gold)
salt, pepper
½ cup farmer’s cheese or ricotta
⅛ cup parmesan cheese, grated
chives, minced
2-4 Tablespoons heavy cream
oil, for pan frying
Instructions
Peel potatoes and grate on a box grater. Squeeze out all moisture by placing the potatoes in a cheesecloth or kitchen towel and squeeze out all excess moisture.
Combine the grated potatoes with the mashed potatoes. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of pepper. You can also add caramelized onions to the potato mixture for added flavor. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients for the cheese filling.
Take about a ¼ cup of potato mixture and form into a patty. Place about a 1½ teaspoon of the cheese filling and place into the center of the patty. Fold the potato mixture over the cheese filling, shaping it into an oval shape.
In a nonstick skillet, heat about 2 Tablespoons of oil and add the pampushki. Cook the potato pampushki on medium heat, about 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Drain the potato pampushki on paper towels. The potato pampuski are delicious with Borsch. You can even make them half as small and serve as cute little appetizers.
