Cheese stuffed potato fritters are the perfect snack or appetizer. They are crispy on the outside and full of cheesy goodness on the inside.
2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8's
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
5 egg yolks
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch ground nutmeg
8 ounces Mozzarella cheese, cut into 10 slices
all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cup italian bread crumbs
vegetable oil
Cook potato in boiling water to cover 15 minutes or until potato is tender; drain. Combine potato and butter in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Let cool. Add egg yolks and next 4 ingredients to potato, stirring well.
Divide potato mixture into 10 portions. Wrap each portion around a cheese slice, shaping into an oval. Lightly dust each with flour; dip into beaten egg, and dredge in breadcrumbs. Cover and chill 20 minutes.
Pour oil to a depth of 4 inches into a Dutch oven; heat to 340 degrees F. Fry, a few at a time, 8 minutes, turning once. Serve immediately.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
