How to choose fresh potatoes
- When buying potatoes, choose those that are smooth, firm to the touch, and feel heavy. Potatoes with more yellowish skin tend to be tastier than those with pale white skin.
- Potatoes with fewer surface blemishes will save you time during preparation.
- Avoid buying sprouted potatoes, those with green discoloration, deformed, scratched or mushy potatoes.
What is cheese powder? Where can you buy it?
- Cheese powder is a type of powder that is yellow, orange-yellow, or white; it is made from cheese and some other ingredients to achieve a creamy, salty flavor and distinctive aroma.
- You can buy cheese powder at baking ingredient stores, markets, supermarkets, or online. When buying, be sure to check the origin, source, expiration date,… to avoid purchasing low-quality products.

Prepare the potatoes
To prevent the potatoes from turning black, after buying them, wash them thoroughly and then peel while soaking them in a bowl of diluted salt water.
Next, slice the potatoes thinly, soak them in another bowl of diluted salt water for about 30 – 40 minutes, then remove and rinse again with clean water, and let drain.
Tip: To keep the potatoes from turning black and to make them crispy and golden when frying, soak the potatoes in diluted salt water.
-
Fry the potatoes
Place a pan on the stove, heat 200ml of cooking oil and 10g of unsalted butter, wait for the butter to melt completely then add the potatoes to fry. To prevent the potatoes from burning, lower the heat and gently stir to avoid breaking the potatoes, fry until golden and crispy, then remove to a basket lined with paper to absorb the oil.

Prepare ingredients
Choose beautiful potatoes with smooth skins, avoiding those that have sprouted as they will taste bitter. Peel the potatoes you bought, wash them clean, and then cut them into small pieces before steaming.
Spread the potatoes evenly on the steaming tray and steam for about 10 – 15 minutes until the potatoes are soft.
-
Mix the potatoes
After steaming, transfer the potatoes to a bowl and mash them with a fork. Once mashed, add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of crushed seaweed, then use a spoon to mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
-
Baking Potatoes
Once the potato mixture is ready, place it in a piping bag, cut a small part at the tip, and start squeezing small portions onto a baking tray.
Note that you should line the baking tray with parchment paper before placing the potato mixture on top. After finishing, prepare a sheet of parchment paper to press against the potato mixture and use a heavy object to flatten the potatoes really thin.
Then, dry them in the air fryer for 30 minutes at a temperature of 120 degrees.
