Popcorn Potatoes Recipe with step by step pictures. This is made with Potato and Cheese. Kids favorite snack recipe made with potatoes.
Popcorn Potatoes
This is one of the simple snack which you can make for your kids..So easy to make and taste so yummy. I used the same dough which i used for my Potato smiley. And the taste was delicious, crunchy and cheesy.
The outer crust is made with oats and it gave a nice crunchy effect to the popcorn, kids will love it for sure..You can make a big batch of them and just before frying you can freeze them in a tray, once they are frozen, collect them in a container and stick in the freezer. This way you can fry them whenever you need them.
