CRUNCHY POTATO LOGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Place potatoes in the water and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash.
• Mix Italian-style seasoning and egg yolk into the mashed potatoes. Allow potato mixture to cool approximately 10 minutes, or until it may be safely handled.
• Place flour, egg white and dry bread crumbs in three separate small bowls. Roll potato mixture into 1 inch logs or balls. Cover in flour, dip in egg white and coat with bread crumbs.
• Carefully lower small batches of the coated potatoes into the deep fryer. Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
