Step 1

Peel the potatoes and slice them into ½ inch thick pieces. Steam the potato slices over medium-high heat for 30 minutes until they are tender. Mash the steamed potatoes until they become smooth

Step 2

Measure 750g of mashed potatoes, then add 5 tablespoons of glutinous rice flour, mix until well combined. Gradually add 1 tsp of salt and ½ tsp of black pepper, adjusting the amounts to your taste. Add the salt and pepper gradually, avoiding adding them all at once.

Step 3

Slice a large onions into rings that are ½ inch wide. Cut mozzarella cheese slices into strips of the same width. Take a smaller onion ring and put it inside a larger one, then insert mozzarella cheese strips between the two onion rings to fill the space between them.

Step 4

Roll a portion of mashed potatoes into a log shape, then line it on top of an onion ring. Cover the onion ring with the mashed potato, and continue this process until the entire onion ring is completely coated. Shape it into a donut shape. Repeat these steps with the remaining onion rings.

Step 5

Heat oil in a medium pot to 350°F (175°C). Using a slotted spoon, gently lower a prepared potato donut into the hot oil. Deep fry over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until it turns golden brown and crispy. Remove using a slotted spoon and let it drain on a cooling rack.

Step 6

Let the deep fried cheesy potato donuts cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot with or without your favorite dipping sauce.
