• Pepper (to taste)
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
• 4 hard-boiled eggs (quartered)
• 3 eggs (beaten, for coating)
• 1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
• Oil (for frying)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Boil the Potatoes

• Peel and chop the potatoes into chunks.
• Boil them in salted water for 30 minutes, or until tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.

2. Mash the Potatoes

• Transfer the boiled potatoes to a large bowl and mash them until smooth.
• Season with salt, pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well.

3. Prepare the Eggs

• Cut the hard-boiled eggs into quarters.

4. Shape the Fritters

• Flatten the ball in your hand, place a piece of hard-boiled egg in the center, and wrap the potato mixture around it to seal.

5. Coat the Fritters

• Dip each fritter into the beaten eggs, then coat evenly with breadcrumbs.

6. Fry the Fritters

• Heat oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
• Fry the fritters in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
• Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

7. Serve & Enjoy

• Serve the fritters warm with your favorite dipping sauce, like ketchup, aioli, or ranch dressing.

Tips for the Best Boiled Egg Fritters

• Use Cold Potatoes: If you have leftover boiled potatoes, this recipe is a great way to use them up.
• Add Cheese: Mix shredded cheese into the potato mixture for extra flavor.
• Bake Instead of Fry: For a healthier option, bake the fritters at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Make Them Spicy: Add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the potato mixture for a kick.

Serving Ideas

• As a Snack: Serve with dipping sauces for a fun appetizer.
• For Breakfast: Pair with a side of fresh salad or roasted veggies.
• As a Side Dish: Serve alongside grilled meat or fish for a complete meal.
