Air fryer potato kyiv

Air fryer potato Kyiv is a delightful twist on the traditional chicken Kyiv, offering a delicious vegetarian alternative. This recipe involves preparing mashed potatoes filled with a rich, buttery garlic-parsley mixture, then breading and air frying them to perfection. The result is a crispy, golden exterior encasing a creamy, flavorful interior that's sure to impress.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling:
- In a small bowl, soften the butter using a microwave or leave it at room temperature until malleable.
- Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the butter.
- Add the chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese to the butter mixture and mix well until all ingredients are combined.
- Once combined, form the butter mixture into small logs or balls, and refrigerate until solidified (about 15-20 minutes).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water until they are soft and tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Then mash them thoroughly in a large bowl until smooth.
3. Assemble the Potato Kyiv:
- Take a portion of the mashed potatoes and flatten it in your hand to make a small disc.
- Place one piece of the solidified butter mixture in the center of the potato disc.
- Carefully fold the potato around the butter, ensuring the butter is fully enclosed. Shape it into a ball or oval, and repeat until all the mashed potatoes and butter filling are used.
4. Prepare the Coating:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
- Place the flour on a plate.
- On another plate, spread out the bread crumbs.
5. Coat the Potato Kyiv:
- Roll each potato ball first in the flour, ensuring it is lightly coated.
- Dip it into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off.
- Finally, roll it in the bread crumbs, making sure it is well-coated. Repeat for all the potato balls.
6. Air Fry:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Arrange the coated potato Kyiv balls in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching, to allow for even cooking.
- Air fry for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Make sure to flip them halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
7. Serve:
- Once cooked, carefully remove the Potato Kyiv from the air fryer.
- Serve hot, and enjoy your delicious, golden, and crispy Potato Kyiv with a side of your choice!

Tips:

- Ensure the potatoes are fully cooked and well mashed to avoid lumps in your mixture.

- Use cold butter for the filling to ensure it stays in place while shaping the potato balls.

- Chill the potato balls before breading to make them easier to handle and to help maintain their shape during the cooking process.

- Spray the breaded potato balls with a light coat of oil before air frying to achieve a golden, crispy crust.

- Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking. If necessary, cook in batches.

By following these steps, you can create a delicious and crispy air fryer potato Kyiv that is both flavorful and satisfying. This recipe strikes a perfect balance between a crunchy exterior and a soft, buttery filling, making it an excellent addition to any meal.
