potato balls

Recipe from "Kuchnia Polska" (Polish Cuisine), published by Reader's Digest

**Ingredients:**

* 800 g potatoes
* 2 eggs
* 4 tbsp all-purpose flour
* a little sugar, to taste
* nutmeg
* salt
* pepper
* fat for frying, preferably clarified butter

Wash the potatoes and boil them in their skins in salted water. Peel them and put them through a grinder or a potato ricer (it's important that they are very finely ground, so just mashing them with a fork, for example, won't be enough).

Add the eggs and seasonings to taste, mix, and shape small balls in your hands. Roll them in flour and fry in hot fat until golden.

Tips:

Instead of balls, you can shape them into elongated croquettes.
