02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

Start by grating 4 medium potatoes, then squeeze out as much moisture as you can using a clean kitchen towel or your hands.

02

Step 2

In a bowl, combine the grated potatoes with 3 eggs, chopped onions, diced capsicum, chili flakes, salt, pepper, chopped coriander, and a little all-purpose flour. Mix everything well until it’s evenly combined.

03

Step 3

Spread the potato mixture evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, shaping it into a square. Bake it in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20-25 minutes until it’s cooked through and slightly crispy.

04

Step 4

Once baked, remove the parchment paper and cut the potato layer into equal squares. Set these aside for now.

05

Step 5

Heat some oil in a pan, then sauté chopped onions and garlic for a couple of minutes until they become soft and translucent. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

06

Step 6

Stir in tomato paste, diced capsicum, chopped tomatoes, and coriander, cooking for another minute. Add grated mozzarella cheese, mix well, and take the pan off the heat.

07

Step 7

Place some of the chicken mixture onto each potato square and carefully roll them up. Arrange the rolls on a baking tray, sprinkle some extra cheese and coriander on top.

08

Step 8

Bake the rolls at 180°C for about 15 minutes until the cheese melts and everything is heated through. Serve warm and enjoy!

Cook's tip

- Make sure to dry the chicken well before stuffing to help the skin crisp up nicely.
- Use a fork to gently prick the potatoes before cooking to avoid sogginess.
- Let the stuffed chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to keep it juicy and flavorful.

Serving ideas

Serve with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables to balance the richness of the filling. A light dipping sauce like garlic yogurt or a tangy chutney can also add a nice contrast and enhance the overall taste.

Storage & leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven to maintain the crispiness of the potato exterior and avoid microwaving, which can make it soggy.
