Potato Spirals with Cinnamon Sugar and Apple Compote
The perfect potato spirals with cinnamon sugar and apple compote recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 600 g Potatoes
- 1 small Onion
- 2 Protein
- 3 Egg yolk
- 1 tsp Salt
- 40 g Corn starch
- 1 pinch Baking soda
- 45 g Liquid butter
- Peel the potatoes and cut into pieces. Peel the onion and dice it. Cook both in salted water, then drain and allow to evaporate for a few minutes on the switched off hotplate. (Please do not cook jacket potatoes). Then put the potatoes and onions still hot through a press and then in a bowl.
- Let the butter melt over a very low heat. Beat egg whites into snow. Beat the egg yolks with the salt in a bowl. Mix starch with baking soda and stir alternately with the liquid butter into the egg yolks. Finally fold in the egg whites and mix everything with the pressed potatoes. The mass should – similar to a cake cream – be smooth and easy to spray. If it is too runny, stir in a little more starch or flour.
- For deep-frying in a larger saucepan, heat approx. 1 liter of neutral oil to 175 ° (thermometer recommended). Cut out 8 squares of 12 x 12 cm from baking paper. Pour the potato mixture into a disposable piping bag and cut off its front tip so that an opening of approx. 8-10 mm is created.
- Now sprinkle the potato mixture in a spiral – starting from the middle – onto the baking paper squares. When the oil has reached its temperature, turn the heat down 1/4 and start frying. To do this, you pick up the paper with the dough at 2 corners. When you are over the pot with it, you let go of one corner, so just hold on to one corner and carefully dip it – with the dough side down – into the (be careful, very hot !!!) oil. In doing so, the paper detaches from the spiral and it floats on the surface. When the underside is golden brown, turn the spiral and let the second side brown as well. Then lift out of the oil with a slotted spoon and degrease on kitchen paper. The temperature of the oil should then only be approx. 155 – 160 °.
- To serve, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and serve with compote. We had apples, but everyone can decide for themselves. They can be a main course (see number of people above), but are also great as a dessert. They can also be served with various meat dishes.
