Steps:
- Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Mash in a bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt until no lumps remain. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the onion, green pepper, and garlic in the hot skillet until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high, and stir in the ground beef. Cook and stir until the beef is crumbly and no longer pink. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt, cumin, pepper, tomato paste, and vinegar until the tomato paste has dissolved. Scrape into a mixing bowl, and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap or waxed paper, and set aside. Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl, and set aside. Pour the bread crumbs and flour into separate, shallow dishes, and set aside.
- Once the potatoes and beef have cooled, form the potato balls: grab a handful of mashed potatoes, and split into two equal portions. Form each piece into a small bowl shape, and fill with the ground beef mixture. Place the two halves together, seal the edges, and smooth to make a round ball. Gently roll the ball in the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then gently roll in bread crumbs. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded potato balls onto the prepared baking sheet while breading the rest. Refrigerate 2 to 4 hours, or freeze for later use.
- To cook, heat the oil for frying in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cook the potato balls in the hot oil in batches, using tongs to roll the balls around as they cook to ensure even browning, until crispy and golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate before serving.

Steps:
- Add the olive oil to a skillet on medium heat, add the garlic and sauté until translucent. Add the onion and stir until it is slightly brown. Once the onions just turn a little brown add the tomato and cook until very soft.
- Cook the ground beef on medium hight heat until brown and crop into very fine pieces like rice.
- Once the beef and brown add the sofrito, adobo, sazón, aji amarillo, dried oregano, black pepper and saffron. Stir very will to combine and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Place the beef in a large baking dish, spread it out and allow to cool.
- Bring a pot of water to boil with the cut pieces of potatoes and add the salt.
- Check the potatoes with a fork for softness. Once very soft drain them and rinse with cold water.
- Mash or use a potato ricer to get the potatoes very smooth with no lumps.
- Spread them out in the bowl and allow to cool. Once they are just warm to the touch add the beaten egg and corn starch then mix to combine. You should have a soft dough that is slightly firm and will hold a shape. Add more corn starch a little at a time to get the right consistency.
- I like to use an ice cream scooper to get the size papas rellena ball. Flatten the ball in the palm of your hand.
- Take about 1 Tbsp of the cooled beef filling and place in the center of the circle.
- Gently squeeze the sides up around the filling to encapsulate it and form a ball.
- Roll the ball in corn meal and set aside until ready to fry. I like to place all mine in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm them up before frying.
- Heat oil to 350°F and fry the papas rellenas until they are golden brown.

PAPA RELLENA: PERUVIAN STUFFED POTATOES
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the unpeeled potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 25 minutes.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander.
- When they are cool enough to handle, peel and mash the potatoes thoroughly (or pass them through a potato ricer ).
- Season the mashed potatoes with salt and pepper to taste. Chill the potatoes uncovered for several hours, or overnight.
- Once the potatoes are very cold, stir the egg into the mashed potatoes until well mixed.
- Cook the egg in boiling water until hard-boiled and set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet. Add the onions, garlic, and aji pepper and cook until soft and fragrant.
- Add the cumin and paprika and cook 2 minutes more, stirring.
- Add the ground beef and cook until browned.
- Add the beef broth and the raisins and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until most of the liquid is gone.
- Stir in the green olives, if using.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Peel the hard-boiled egg and chop it into about 6 pieces.
- With floured hands, place about 1/4 cup of mashed potatoes in one hand, and make a well in the center.
- Fill the well with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture and a piece of hard-boiled egg.
- Mold the potatoes around the beef, adding more potato if necessary to fully enclose the filling. Shape into an oblong oval with slightly pointy ends, about the size of a medium potato.
- Repeat with the rest of the ingredients; you should be able to make 6 croquettes. Coat each papa rellena generously with flour.
- In a deep skillet or deep-fat fryer , heat 2 inches of oil to 360 F. Set the oven to 200 F.
- Fry the potatoes in batches until they are golden brown.
- Drain them on a plate lined with paper towels. Keep the papa rellena warm in the oven until ready to serve.

STUFFED POTATOES - PAPAS RELLENAS, COLOMBIA
Our "Finca" (farm) in Colombia was about 5 hours from my home city of Medellín, although the roads are much better now and you can get there in about two to three hours. For vacation, my parents and I (as well as many relatives and their families) would go to the farms and have wonderful family reunions. We would always take the "ladder bus" that would leave Medellín at exactly 3:30 a.m.. At 7:00 a.m. the bus would always make the breakfast stop at the riverside town of Bolombolo, a dusty, hot town that survived by serving food, providing cheap accommaccommodations and selling trinkets to the buses going by. Since Bolombolo possessed the only bridge across the Cauca River for several hundred kilometers, the bus and trucking trade was very lucrative for the inhabitants. I always looked forward to our stop for breakfast in Bolombolo as this town was famous for its "empanadas" and its "papas rellenas". I always had two of each with a large cup of hot chocolate. Pure heaven!

Steps:
- 1) Boil the whole potatoes in a pot filled with enough water to completely cover the potatoes. About 30 to 45 minutes.
- 2) Once the potatoes are cooked, take them out of the pot and set them aside on a plate to cool for about one hour.
- 3) While the potatoes are cooling, chop the green onions and tomato into small chunks and saute these in the butter (or olive oil) adding the garlic, cumin, 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper. We call this the "Hogao".
- 4) Cook the hamburger meat in a frying pan with a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil until it is no longer pink. Do not overcook. While the meat is cooking, add the corn starch, the remaining salt and more cumin if you wish. Make sure that the meat turns out crumbly with no large chunks.
- 5) Thoroughly mix the "hogao" and cooked hamburger meat in a bowl and set aside to cool.
- 6) Cut the potatoes in half. Now we come to the tricky part. In other countries, they mash the potatoes and simply make round balls out of them. We do it the hard way in Colombia. Take each potato half and scoop the middle of it out with a spoon so that you end up with a small "potato bowl". Be careful not too scoop too much out as you may accidentally go through the skin and the potato may fall apart on you.
- 7) Now, take the scooped out potato "meat" and cut through it with a sharp knife. Don't use a fork because it may turn into "mashed potatoes" and the texture will be much better the coarser it is.
- 8) Place the potato "meat" in the bowl with the hamburger and hogao and mix thoroughly, making sure that there are no really large chunks of potato in the mixture.
- 9) Add the cooked rice to the mixture and mix thoroughly once more.
- 10) With your fingers, take some of the meat/rice mixture and fill the middle of the potato bowls with enough mixture to form a dome. In other words, shape the mixture so that it now looks like you have a whole potato again.
- 11) Heat your oil to frying temperature.
- 12) Beat together the large eggs, milk and the flour until smooth. (I add a little salt, pepper and cumin to my batter but it is up to your taste).
- 13) Roll each stuffed potato in the batter until well covered and drop into the hot oil using a slotted spoon. Cook until golden on one side, roll over and cook the other side.
- 14) Remove potatoes from the oil and drain on a plate or platter lined with a thick layer of paper towels on the bottom.
- 15) Enjoy! I like to use squeezed lemon or a mild salsa on my papas rellenas but they are delicious just by themselves.
- Hint: Sometimes, as you deep-fry the potatoes, you may notice that the batter may slide off leaving a blank spot on your potato. What I do, is that I use a teaspoon to pour some of the raw batter over the spot, carefully "slosh" some of the hot oil over it with the slotted spoon to set the batter and roll it over once more to cook the spot.
