Title: Sandy Williams's Tortas De Papa
Categories: Five, Potatoes, Eggs, Cheese, Salsa
Yield: 32 Servings
8 md Baking potatoes
1/2 c Feta cheese crumbled
2 lg Eggs
3 tb Oil
Salsa; pick your heat
Boil the potatoes for 15 minutes or until well cooked;
drain, when cool enough to handle, but not cold, peel
them. In a large bowl, mash them, add salt to taste and
mix thoroughly. Set aside.
Using a blender, coarsely chop the cheese. Combine the
potatoes and cheese, mixing well, using your fingers.
Add eggs and continue mixing by hand until the mixture
is smooth. Taste and add salt if necessary.
Heat some of the oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Scoop out a little bit of the potato mixture (about 2
tablespoons) and pat out a small cake with your fingers,
flipping it gently from hand to hand until it is a
uniform shape, about 3" in diameter and about 1/2"
thick.
Place the potato cake in the hot oil and saute for about
3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain it on a paper
towel.
After patting out each cake, dip your fingers in a bowl
of water so the next one will not stick and add some oil
to the frying pan after each batch.
Stack the drained potato cakes on a platter in a warm
oven until ready to serve. (To store, wrap them in foil
and refrigerate. Reheat by placing the foil package in a
moderate over for 15 - 20 minutes. They are not crisp on
the outside when reheated, but still tasty)
Serve with salsa.
