1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel and dice the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash them until smooth.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, grated Fontina cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, eggs, flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3
Shape the Crocchetta
Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into small patties or balls.
4
Coat with Breadcrumbs
Roll each crocchetta in breadcrumbs until fully coated.
5
Fry the Crocchetta
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the crocchetta in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
6
Drain and Serve
Remove the crocchetta from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
