MAKING OF POTATO DOUGH

  • Peel and chop 400 gram potatoes into small pieces. Make sure that potatoes are cut into uniform pieces.
  • Put all the chopped potatoes into boiling water.
  • In the meantime take a bowl and put a sieve over the bowl. Also keep a fork, spoon and spatula handy.
  • Boil potatoes for 8-10 minutes or until they are cooked yet firmed. You can check it by inserting a fork.
  • Strain the potatoes and transfer them into sieve/strainer.
  • While they are hot, immediately start mashing the potatoes using a fork.
  • Once they are completely mashed, press them using the back side of the spoon in such a way that a fine mash passes through the strainer.
  • Also keep on scraping the base of the strainer using spatula.
  • All the fine mash is collected in the bowl.
  • Add 1 cup of corn flour/corn starch.
  • Mix very well.
  • Now start adding water, but very little at a moment, and keep on kneading a dough. Be careful while adding water.
  • Knead the potatoes into a crack free dough.
  • Take a small piece of dough from the entire dough.
  • Roll this small piece of dough into a crack free smooth ball having no cracks.
  • Take a glass bottle and dip it's mouth into oil.
  • Place the mouth of bottle over the ball and gentle press the bottle.
  • You will get the shape of potato ball like a mushroom.
  • Likewise prepare all the balls. We could make 21 balls out of the entire dough.
  • Transfer these 21 potato starters into boiling water contained in a large pot.
  • In 3 to 4 minutes, these mushroom looking starters will begin to float on the top of water.
  • Immediately transfer them from boiling water to ice cold water.
  • Let them sit there for 5 minutes or until completely cool.
  • Take them out of the cold water and put in a separate bowl.

SEASONING

  • Add 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp red chilli powder, 1 tbsp soya sauce and 1 tsp Salt in a bowl.
  • Heat 2 tbsp sesame oil and cook 1 tbsp chopped garlic in it until brown.
  • Transfer this garlic oil to a bowl carrying soya sauce and other ingredients.
  • Mix well.
  • Pour this seasoning over the potato starters.
  • Give them a good mix after adding 2 tbsp of chopped spring onion greens.
