Preparation
First, let's prepare the potato base for the balls. To do this, clean the previously washed potato tubers, fill with cold water and boil until tender. Then drain the water, knead the tubers with a pusher to get mashed potatoes, season with salt and ground black pepper, mix thoroughly and let cool. Now add wheat flour to make a viscous mass, pliable for sculpting, and cut the hard cheese into medium-sized cubes.
We put a full teaspoon of potato mass in the palm of our hand, form a cake from it, place a piece of cheese in the center and close the edges, forming a ball. The cheese must be completely covered with the potato mixture, otherwise it will simply leak out when frying the balls.
Now we pour a sufficient amount of refined vegetable oil into the pan, heat it up and put in small portions the preparation of potato balls with cheese. After they acquire a beautiful brown blush, we remove it on napkins or a paper towel, let the fat soak in, and then move the products onto a dish.
Ingredients:
Preparation
As in the previous recipe, boil the previously washed and peeled potatoes until cooked, and then knead with a crush until the lumps are completely removed and a homogeneous mashed potato is obtained, season it with butter and leave until it cools completely.
In the meantime, we are preparing the filling. To do this, put the peeled and finely chopped salad onions in a frying pan heated with olive oil and fry for five minutes. Then add the grated carrots, peeled and chopped garlic, sauté the vegetables for another five minutes and add the chopped pre-washed mushrooms. Season the mass with salt and ground pepper, cover the container with a lid and cook over moderate heat until vegetables and mushrooms are tender and soft.
Add an egg, a little salt and ground black pepper to the cooled potato mass and knead well. If necessary, add a little flour and mix again. With moistened hands we form a potato cake, put a little filling on it in the center and close the potato edges, hiding the mushroom filler inside.
Mix with sesame seeds, bread the mashed potato balls with mushrooms in the resulting mixture and place them on a baking sheet, having previously covered it with a parchment sheet and smeared with oil.
We set the baking sheet with the blanks on the middle level of the oven preheated to 185 degrees and let stand for twenty five to thirty minutes, periodically turning over.
Any filling from ham and any other meat products to fresh or semi-cooked vegetable or seafood slices can be used to prepare these potato balls.

Deep-fried mashed potato balls
Deep-fried potato balls are a suitable garnish for meat. They are also served with sour cream. Sour cream adds even more tenderness to the whole dish.
The balls will be tender if the potatoes are poured evenly without lumps. Dip the peeled tubers in a saucepan with salt water. Cook for about half an hour until tender. Then drain the water, add 2 eggs, cream and melted butter to the hot potatoes, crush the potatoes. The basis is prepared.
Before proceeding to frying in oil, you need to form balls of mashed potatoes. The process is simple, if you have the skill. You will need to pick up 2-3 teaspoons of thick puree and roll a neat ball out of it.
Carry out this procedure with all the ready-made puree. The balls must be shaped until the puree has cooled down. Dip the koloboks in flour. Beat the remaining 2 eggs and dip the potato balls in them, and then roll them in breadcrumbs.
When the balls are ready, you can start frying. Pour the sunflower oil into a deep container and heat it to a boil. Gently dip the balls into the oil. For even roasting, you need to constantly turn them over.
After the color of the potatoes has turned golden, you need to remove the balls from the heat and put on a napkin so that the excess oil is absorbed. Serve hot, before sprinkling with herbs for flavor and beauty.
In the oven, the dish comes out just as tasty as when deep-fried. But there is one plus - they are less fat and calories. It is recommended to cook mashed potato balls in the oven for those who look after their thin waist.
You will need:
The base for potato balls is made in the same way as in the first case. After the potatoes are boiled, crush them into a tender, lump-free puree. To keep it airy and light, you can use a blender.
Form the warm mashed potatoes into balls using 2-3 teaspoons of potatoes to make one. Dip in flour and breadcrumbs. When the koloboks are ready, proceed to the preparation of the baking sheet. It must be greased with sunflower oil in advance. Place the balls on the baking sheet. On each bun you can put cheese, slice or grated.
It is necessary to heat the oven to 170 degrees. Take care of this beforehand. Place the baking sheet with potato balls in the oven and let stand for about 25 minutes. In the oven, the balls will be covered with a golden crust, and the cheese will be baked on the surface. Put the finished koloboks on a flat plate.

Let's go to the mushroom sauce. It is necessary to chop the champignons (you can take honey mushrooms), add chopped onions and salt to taste. Fry the mixture. When the mushrooms are fried, pour the cream into the pan and simmer all together. The secret of the special taste is that the mushrooms must be free of refrigeration. It is bad to take dried mushrooms for the sauce, since it is impossible to see traces of spoilage on them.
