Resep: Potato Cheese Balls Recipe

Image
As a big fan of potato and cheese at the same time, the combination of both is just lovely for me. So, few weeks ago I wrote a recipe for Perkedel , Indonesian style mashed potato fritters. This recipe is even better, well because I added cheese into the dough and filled with mozzarella, it's breaded, and deep fried. Can I name it Perkedel Hybrid? Well, it's really a must try recipe anyway.  There's an option to put the garlic in or not, I prefer mine without garlic. But if you want it with garlic, it will taste pretty close to  Perkedel  while I like it cheesy so better to leave the garlic. You can also replace the corned beef with chopped smoked beef. It is important to put the breaded potato balls into the fridge (approximately 15-30 minutes) before frying as you want everything stick together. Deep fry on medium low heat, until golden brown. Ingredients: 4 potatoes, boiled, peeled 50 gr corned beef 1 tbsp flour 50 gr grated cheddar cheese 100 gr mozzarella, cut into cub

Another Japanese food experience, Akira Back . To describe, their menus are quite unique as they present modern Japanese food, western inspired dishes but using ingredients that commonly used in Japanese cuisine with a twist of Korean, to me it's very interesting. Chef Akira Back is a Korean-born, and he used to be a professional snowboarder, more than enough to explain why menus here are quite unique and yass adventurous! Widely known as a Japanese fine dining restaurant, Akira Back Jakarta finally dilated to middle market with IDR 180k ++ set menu, including starter, main, and dessert. Starters There are four starters to choose, first it's Salmon Aburi with yuzu soy, topped with peppers and radish sprouts. Actually Salmon Aburi is my must order in Japanese restaurant but I went for the Kimchee-se Sliders, warm toasted bun, juicy short rib patty with mozzarella cheese, it was really tasty and portion was generous too, big enough for a slider, almost like a burger. Next, Hac

It looks like Shashouka, pretty much the same, poached egg in tomato sauce but classic shashouka has more spices such as cumin, usually has chili peppers in it. Mine is more Italian, as I used bolognese sauce, also works with marinara sauce. Store bought is just fine but if you want to make your own, check out my Marinara Sauce recipe. Ingredients : 1 cup Italian pasta sauce or marinara 1 egg salt n pepper to taste, if needed mozzarella cheese (optional) Directions : Cook the sauce on a pan, season it with salt and pepper (if needed). Add in the egg, cook longer if you want fully cooked egg or less for runny egg yolk. Serve with bread. Find me on: Youtube  and  Instagram   @heytheresia  for daily food and travel updates
