Instructions
 

  • Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until they are fork-tender. Drain and mash the potatoes in a large bowl.
  • Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  • Shape the potato mixture into small balls or patties and dip each one into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the crocchè in batches until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
  • Remove the crocchè from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
  • Serve the crocchè hot with a side of marinara sauce or a dipping sauce of your choice.
  • Enjoy!
