Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h

Ready-made and already cooled mashed potatoes are taken out of the refrigerator. If there is nothing left after yesterday's dinner, boil the potatoes, turn them into mashed potatoes and cool them at least to room temperature.

Add chicken eggs to the mashed potatoes, preferably one at a time. Garlic can be finely chopped, but it is better to pass through a press - so it will be evenly distributed over the mass. Add garlic to potatoes, salt and pepper.

Grate the cheese on a fine grater. You can take any desired variety, the only condition is that the cheese must be firm. Add it to the potatoes and mix the mass until smooth. In small portions, we begin to add flour. In the case of tortillas, you don't have to worry about sifting it - we pour it as it is, right out of the pack. Adding flour, constantly knead the mass with a fork until smooth.

Knead a fairly steep potato dough and divide it into equal parts, each of which is formed into a ball. These are the blanks for future tortillas.

It is quite difficult to roll out such dough with a rolling pin, so we use another method. A small plate is well sprinkled with flour, put a ball of dough in the middle and evenly stretch it in different directions. Tortillas are obtained in large size and fried one at a time, so you don't have to cook on several plates in advance (so that after cooking you don't wash a large number of dishes).

You can fry potato tortillas in oil or without. In any case, they will not burn, the method is chosen depending on personal desire. Without oil, they will be less caloric and are quite suitable for a diet menu.

Preheat the pan to a very hot state (add oil if desired). Fry each tortilla for 3 minutes, then turn it over to the other side. This time is enough for the middle to be fully prepared. Spread the tortillas in a pile and serve with sour cream or any other sauce. Sprinkle with fresh herbs on top.

Bon appetit!
