4. Crack the egg(s) into a bowl and beat lightly, just to mix the egg white and yolk.
5. Grate the parmesan, if you didn’t buy it already grated.

PREPARATION:

Potatoes – cooking:

1. Wash and peel the potatoes, preferably using a potato peeler, and cut them into 4 parts.
2. Place the potatoes in a clear plastic bag, poke a few holes in the bag and close it.
3. Place the bag on the microwave plate and cook at maximum power for about 10 minutes, or until well cooked. Cooking time may vary depending on the power of the microwave.
4. Remove from the microwave, place the potatoes in a bowl and mash them, while still hot, with a potato masher or a fork, until you obtain a smooth dough.
5. Let it cool before proceeding to the next step.

Potato meatballs – modeling:

1. In the bowl with the cold mashed potatoes, add the other ingredients: beaten egg(s), yeast, corn starch and grated parmesan. Mix well.
2. If necessary add a little salt.
3. Work the dough with your hands until it is smooth and has a compact enough consistency to form balls.
4. Using a teaspoon as a measure, take portions of dough and form small balls.

Potato and parmesan meatballs – Airfryer:

1. Preheat the Airfryer to 180°C.
2. Brush or drizzle the balls with a drizzle of oil, this will make them crispier.
3. Place the balls in the preheated basket of the Airfryer, without overlapping them, leaving space between them to allow air circulation.
4. Repeat the process until all the balls are used up. Depending on the number of balls and the size of the basket, this process can be done in several stages.

FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:

1. Serve the potato meatballs hot, both as a snack and as a delicious accompaniment to your main course.
