**The Art of Creating Delicate Potato Bites**
Creating delicate potato bites that resemble gnocchi but with a unique twist is an art form that requires precision and patience. In this recipe, we will explore the process of crafting these bite-sized treats that are both crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.
To begin, we need to prepare our potatoes by boiling them until they are cooked through. However, instead of mashing or pureeing them, we will leave them intact with their skin still attached. This is crucial in achieving the right texture later on. Once our potatoes are cooked, we can drain them and proceed to create the puff.
To create the puff, we need to heat oil in a deep frying pan to around 330 degrees Celsius. We then carefully place our potato bites into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. The key is to gently place them in so that they don't stick together or splash the oil. After a few minutes of frying, we remove the potatoes from the oil and let them cool for a short while.
**The Second Fry**
After our initial fry, we need to turn up the heat to around 350 degrees Celsius and fry the potatoes once more. This step is crucial in achieving that perfect golden brown color on the outside. We want to make sure that our potatoes are crispy but not burnt or overcooked. With the second fry, our potato bites should start to puff up, giving them a delightful texture.
**The Secret to Success**
So, what's behind this recipe's success? The key lies in the addition of starches, which we've added to the potatoes before frying. This helps to create a smooth and creamy interior that's similar to mashed potatoes but with a unique twist. By carefully balancing the amount of oil used and the temperature, we can achieve that perfect crunch on the outside while keeping the inside silky smooth.
**A Delicious Twist**
The result of our hard work is a recipe that's both delicious and visually appealing. Our creamy crunchy bubble potatoes are a game-changer for anyone who loves potatoes but wants something new and exciting. With their perfectly seasoned flavor and delightful texture, these bite-sized treats are sure to become a favorite in your household.

It's pretty magical.It's based on a French technique.I'll put a link down below to that recipein case you missed it.But today is more of a kindof mash potato tater tot,but it looks scrumdiddlyumptious.It is inspired by a TikTokvideo, Ms. She and Mr. He,and I will put a link downbelow to the original.So let's go ahead and get started.So the first thing we need todo are boil some potatoes --we're going to be usinglarge Russet potatoes.We're gonna attempt that hack,that you've probably seen,where they score theircircumference of the potato,and then squeeze it out of its jacket.I've actually never done it before,so I went ahead and tried it.I took two large Russetpotatoes, scored them first,placed them in some boilingwater and boiled them --the instruction said for 30 minutes,but it's more like 45 minutesif you have really large potatoes.And we are going to shock ourpotatoes into the cold water,so that we can peel them.And it's already sliding out,let's see if we can get itcompletely out of its jacket.We can just squeeze it.Sure enough. Holysmokes, it totally works!Well, at least on thatside, it did. Kind of, yeah.That kind of worked, some ofit crumbled in my hand....Saves you some peeling,that's kinda great.So the recipe says to use two potatoes,but it included grammeasurements, which I appreciate,because if I used two potatoes,I would have used twice as much weight.We only need 300 grams, andmy potatoes are quite large.So give thanks for including measurements.In the original video,they use a garlic pressto press the potatoes.I'm going to be using a potato ricer,which essentially is a giant garlic press.And it will take a lot less timethan using a tiny, tiny garlic press.This gadget is perfect for gettingperfectly mushed potatoes.So you place the plunger down,place your potatoes inthere, and look at that.Oh yeah.Oh nice, so nice! There we go.To our hot potatoes we're going to addtwo tablespoons of glutinous rice flour.This is a little bit differentthan regular rice flour,it's made with glutinousrice or sweet sticky rice.It's not actually sweet --it has a sticky texture.So it is different thanregular rice flour.So we're gonna add that and onetablespoon of potato starch.And then we're also goingto add, for seasoning,plenty of black pepper.(pepper grinder grinding)Good heaping quarter teaspoon of salt.Now I'm gonna go aheadand use my hands hereto form this into a dough.And there's no raw egg in this,so we could even taste this for seasoning.Let's see if it's salty enough.No, I think it needs more salt.Here's our little ball of dough,and we're gonna split it inhalf, and roll it into a snake.It's not really forming a snakelike they do in the video --maybe my potato doesn'thave quite as much starch.I don't know.And then we're going totake the tines of a forkand press down on them --Kind of like a gnocchi, but kinda not.Creating a little puff like that.330 degrees.We're gonna go ahead and carefullyplace these into the oil,and gently fry thesefor about five minutes,so make sure they don'tstick to the bottom.Potatoes are already cooked,so we don't have toreally worry about that.We do wanna cook the starches a bit.Oh, look how they're floating up top,they're looking so cute already.Look: cute!We're gonna drain them andthen we're gonna fry themone more time to get them nice and crispy.Whenever frying in cooking,we don't wanna overcrowd our pan,because it will reduce the temperature,in this case of the oil significantly,so that we'll lose all that heat,so don't overcrowd your pan or your pot.Okay, so these ones Ithink are about right --just a little bit of a goldencolor on them. Look how cute.So when you place things into oil,try to place them in gently,and kind of close to the oil.I know that's sort of counterintuitive,because the oil is very hot,but that will reduce the splashing.And then use a chopstickafter you place it,just to give them a littlenudge, a little scunch,so that they don't stickto the bottom of the pot.Now we're done with our first fryand I've turned up theheat so that the oil is nowat about 350.And this is just to get them golden brown.And look at 'em, they'regetting all golden.(oil sizzling)And they are puffing up. That's so cool.Look at that. That is beautiful!All right. Set those aside.And the second fry reallydoesn't take much time at all.Look at that. Gorgeous.Before. After.(Emmy purrs)Wow, this recipe is workingso far. Okay TikTok.If you haven't seen myother TikTok recipe tests,I'll put a link downbelow to the playlist.And sprinkle that with somesalt and shake on some paprika.(bright upbeat music)Alrighty lovelies, these look phenomenal.Check 'em out. Look howstinking cute they look.So this recipe is calledCreamy Crunchy Bubble Potatoes,and surprisingly enough,I got mine to puff up.Let's give this a taste.Here we go. Itadakimasu!Hmm. Those are good.Slightly crunchy on theoutside, like thinly crunchy,but inside it's supersmooth and mash potatoey,but even creamier than mashed potatoes.I was expecting kind of a tater tot thing,because these look kindof like tater tots,but tater tots have much moreof a tooth or bite to them,while these are just kindof super smooth and creamy.Creamier than mashed potatoes.Here, let me show you the inside.See how creamy it is?Butterly, silky, smooth.It must have something to dowith the added starches in there.Mmmm!(Emmy claps hands)Gotta get some paper towels.Let's try one that's a littlebit crunchier. Here we go.All right, here we go.Mm-hmm. Perfectly seasoned.I love the addition of the black pepper.I do have to say they do feela little bit oily or greasy,and maybe it's becausethese are mashed potatoesand they absorb some moreoil, but they do feel oily.They taste phenomenal.And now I'm gonna taste themwith a little bit of ketchup,because ketchup...potatoes.Here's a crunchier one.Let's dip it in some ketchup.Oh yes.Delicious! So, so good.If you like potatoes,especially deep fried potatoes,I think you'll definitely like this.I've never had deep fried potatoeswith this type of texture before.And you'd think at this point I've triedso many different potatoes,but never quite like this.And they're delicious!Alrighty my lovelies,thanks so much for watching.And big thanks to Helix Sleepfor sponsoring this video.If you'd like to tryHelix Sleep for yourself,click the link down below or head overto helixsleep.com/emmymadeto see how you can receiveup to $200 off your Helix Sleep mattressand two free pillows.Thanks again for watching.I hope you enjoy that one.I hope you learned something.Please share this video with your friends.Follow me on social mediato check out my website,I'll include a printableversion of this recipe,and yeah, like this video, subscribe.And I shall see you in the next one.Toodaloo, take care.
