How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh potatoes
- Only buy potatoes that are firm, heavy, have smooth skin, are intact, with no spots, pests, black eyes on the skin, not rotten, and have no liquid oozing out.
- Potatoes should be chosen with a yellow color, without deep dents to make the preparation before cooking quicker and easier.
- Avoid choosing potatoes that have sprouted, with the skin turning green, as these are very toxic, and no matter how they are processed, they can harm people’s health.
- Avoid buying potatoes with wrinkled skin; if pressed, they feel soft, as most of these potatoes are old, wilted, with little nutritional value left, and bland taste.
- You should also not buy scratched potatoes, as these will spoil quickly if not consumed immediately and can infect healthy potatoes nearby, causing them to rot and become inedible.

How to choose fresh chicken eggs
- Choose eggs with thick shells, not too large, as they are usually fresher than those with thin, large shells.
- For eggs with hard outer shells, check if there is a thin layer of powder surrounding the shell; if so, these are fresh eggs.
- To check if the eggs are still fresh, gently shake them; if there is no movement, the eggs are fresh, and if there is strong movement, the eggs are old.
- If you observe that the eggshell is too shiny and smooth, these are eggs that have been stored for a long time, which can negatively affect health when consumed.

How to make Baked Cheese Potato Cake
-
Prepare the ingredients
Shallots and green onions should be washed clean and drained, then chopped finely.
After peeling the potatoes, use a grater to shred them.
-
Whisk the egg mixture
Add 1/2 of the chopped green onions from above, 2 eggs, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt into a bowl.
Use chopsticks to whisk the mixture until it is well blended and a layer of white foam appears.
-
Mix and squeeze the grated potato mixture
Add the grated potatoes along with the shallots and the remaining 1/2 chopped green onions into a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of pepper and use your hands to mix well so that the potatoes absorb the fragrance of the pepper and shallots.
Next, gently squeeze the grated potatoes to remove excess water so that the cakes will be crispier when fried.
Note: Do not squeeze the potatoes too hard as this will remove all the moisture and affect the taste.
-
Bake the cake
Place a pan on the stove, lightly brush a layer of cooking oil or butter on the surface of the pan to ensure even browning while baking the cake.
Add 1/2 of the grated potato mixture into the pan and spread it evenly to cover the surface of the pan. Then pour in 1/2 of the beaten egg mixture.
Next, place 3 slices of cheese on top, then add the remaining potato mixture, followed by pouring the remaining egg mixture on top.
Cover the pan and bake for 10 minutes on low heat.
After 10 minutes of baking, the potatoes will become translucent. At this point, turn off the heat, take the cake out, flip it over and bake the other side for an additional 5 minutes.
Note: When baking the other side of the cake, also add a little cooking oil or butter to the pan, and during this baking, do not cover the pan so that the top of the cake becomes crispy.
Turn off the stove, take the cake out, and the dish is complete.

Prepare the ingredients
Wash the potatoes you bought, peel them, and then steam them until cooked, about 10 – 15 minutes. Once the potatoes are cooked, use a fork to mash them until smooth without any lumps.
Then, prepare a bowl for 500g of cornstarch and add the mashed potatoes, mixing well to form a dough. If it’s too dry, you can add a little fresh milk or water to help the mixture bind together.
You can use either melted cheese or Laughing Cow cheese, cutting the cheese into small pieces for the filling inside.
-
Making the cake
After mixing the potatoes and flour, you divide them into small pieces. For each small piece of dough, you use your hands to press it evenly and flatten it out, then you place cheese inside and shape the dough into a round or flat shape according to your preference. Keep doing this until all the dough and cheese is used up.
You put the pan on the stove, add a little oil and heat until it boils over low heat. Once the oil is hot, you add the cakes and fry them until they are evenly cooked and golden brown on both sides.
-
Final product
The potato cheese cakes after frying are golden brown on both sides, with a crispy surface and soft, creamy inside along with melted cheese that tastes very delicious. You should add this cake to your family’s snack menu right away.
With just a little time and a few simple steps, you can have the baked cheesy potato cakes that are both delicious and nutritious. Wish you success!
