Crispy Mashed Potatoes Recipe Tips 

Here are a few tips for making this Santa Fe salad:

Here are some helpful tips to make your mashed potato spring rolls even better:

  • Choose the Right Potato: Russet potatoes are ideal for mashing due to their fluffy texture. Make sure they are fresh for the best flavor.

  • Adjust Consistency: Ensure your mashed potatoes are creamy but not too runny; this helps them hold their shape inside the spring roll wrappers.

  • Season Generously: Taste your mashed potato mixture before wrapping. Adjust the seasoning with salt, garlic powder, and other spices to enhance the flavor.

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh green onions, real bacon bits, and quality cheese can elevate the taste of your spring rolls.

  • Wrap Tightly: When wrapping, make sure to roll tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.

  • Seal Properly: Use water to moisten the edges of the wrappers, ensuring they seal well and stay intact while cooking.

  • Cooking Method: For a healthier option, bake the spring rolls instead of frying them. Just brush them with a bit of oil to help them crisp up.

  • Serving Suggestion: Serve immediately after cooking for the best crunch. Pair them with various dipping sauces for an interactive dining experience.

  • Storage Tips: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in the oven to retain crispiness.

The Crispy Mashed Potatoes  Recipe

Ingredients:

  • For the filling:

    • 1 large russet potato
    • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
    • 2 tbsp milk or cream (adjust for desired creaminess)
    • Salt, to taste
    • 1 tbsp butter
    • 2 tbsp bacon bits (optional)
    • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1 tbsp chopped green onions
  • For wrapping:

    • 1-2 spring roll wrappers (depending on how much filling you use)
    • Water (for sealing)
  • For topping:

    • Sour cream
    • Extra cheddar cheese (optional)
    • Additional green onions (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Mashed Potato:

    • Peel and chop the russet potato into even chunks.
    • Boil the potato in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
    • Drain and return it to the pot.
    • Add garlic powder, milk or cream, butter, and salt to taste. Mash until smooth and creamy. Let it cool slightly.
  2. Mix in Additional Ingredients:

    • Once the mashed potato has cooled, fold in bacon bits, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions.
  3. Wrap the Spring Rolls:

    • Take a spring roll wrapper and place it on a clean surface, with one corner facing you.
    • Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of the potato filling onto the center of the wrapper.
    • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Use water to seal the edges.
    •  
  4. Cook the Spring Roll:

    • Frying Method: Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the spring roll until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.
    • Baking Method: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the spring roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with oil and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
