Advice
Let the boiled potatoes steam-dry before mashing, because dry potatoes make crispier bites and stop the mixture from turning sticky.
β
Why it works π‘
β
Potato gives softness, brined cheese adds salty richness, breadcrumbs bind the mixture, cornmeal makes the crust crisp, and garlic yogurt cuts through the warmth with a cool fresh finish.

For a smoky Balkan tavern version, add 20 g finely chopped roasted red pepper (2 tbsp / 0.7 oz) to the potato mixture and a pinch of smoked paprika to the coating.
