How to make Fried Potato Balls with Quail Eggs
-
Prepare the potatoes
Peel the potatoes and wash them with clean water. You can wear nylon gloves to avoid itching.
Then steam the potatoes until cooked, and use a spoon or fork to mash them.
-
Prepare the other ingredients
Boil the quail eggs for about 7 – 10 minutes until cooked, then peel them.
Crack 2 chicken eggs into a bowl and beat them until well mixed.
Soak the shiitake mushrooms, squeeze out the water, and chop finely.
Peel the carrot and onion, then chop them finely as well.
-
Mix and shape the potato balls
Mix the mashed potatoes with the carrot, onion, chopped shiitake mushrooms, and 1 teaspoon of seasoning.
Wear gloves and mix well so that the ingredients can blend together.
Scoop a spoonful of the mixture, flatten it, place a quail egg in the center, then shape it into a round ball. You should press it a bit firmly so that the potato ball doesn’t break when frying.
-
Fried potato balls
Roll each potato ball coated with quail egg through crispy flour, chicken egg, and breadcrumbs in turn.
Place a pan on the stove and add about 1 cup of cooking oil, then heat it up.
When the oil is hot, gradually add each potato ball and fry over medium heat until the potatoes are evenly golden.
-
Making the sauce
Boil about 40 – 50ml of filtered water, then add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 2 teaspoons of cornstarch, and cook over high heat.
Then add 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar and 1 tablespoon of seasoning.
Cook until the mixture thickens, add 1 teaspoon of white wine, stir well, then turn off the heat.
How to make Fried Potato Balls wrapped with Sausage
-
Prepare the potatoes
Peel the potatoes, cut them into small pieces, and soak them in a bowl of salted water for about 5 – 7 minutes to remove the excess starch. You should wear gloves to avoid itching while preparing them.
Prepare a pot of boiling water and steam the potatoes for about 5 – 7 minutes until cooked.
Then, place the potatoes in a bowl and use a fork or spoon to mash them. Mashing while the potatoes are still hot will make it easier than when they have cooled down.
-
Potato wrapped with sausage
For the sausage, cut it into 2 – 3 pieces so that it is easy to eat.
Take some potatoes, flatten them, and place the sausage in the middle. Then roll it into a ball so that the potatoes surround the sausage; you should roll it a bit tightly so that the potatoes do not fall apart during cooking.
Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and whisk them until well combined.
Pour the crispy flour and breadcrumbs onto 2 large plates.
Dip each potato sausage stick in the crispy flour, then the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs.
-
Frying the potatoes
For this dish, you should use a pot to save oil and help the dish cook more evenly.
Add enough oil to the pot to cover 1/2 – 2/3 of it, then heat until boiling.
When the oil is hot, add the sausage sticks one by one to fry until they are golden brown.
You should fry over medium heat to ensure the dish cooks evenly and does not burn.
-
Final Product
Delicious and attractive sausage-wrapped potatoes, with a crispy golden-brown outer layer, while the potato is soft and fragrant, and the sausage is chewy with an enticing aroma. This dish should be enjoyed with chili sauce for perfection.

How to choose good potatoes
- You should choose potatoes that are yellow in color, as they are tastier and more nutritious than white ones.
- Avoid choosing potatoes that have sprouted or have green skin, as these contain harmful substances for health.
- Good potatoes are those that feel firm to the touch, with smooth skin, not bruised or spotted.
- Do not buy potatoes with deep dents or scratches, as these will spoil quickly if not used right away.
