Luciano-Like Potatoes
- 3 medium potatoes, about 1 lb., peeled and quartered
- 12 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 12 ounces cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 1 (4 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
- 1 dash pepper
- 1 dash Tabasco sauce
- milk
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 12 cups corn flakes, coarsely crushed
- In a saucepan, cook potatoes in boiling water about 20 minutes or until tender.
- Drain and mash.
- Stir in parmesan, cream cheese, butter, green onion, soup mix, pepper and tabasco.
- Mix well.
- Add 1 - 2 T. milk if the potatoes are too dry.
- Don't make the mixture too soft, though, they need to hold their shape when cooking.
- Shape into 8 balls, roll in beaten egg, then corn flakes.
- Press the corn flakes to really adhere them to the potatoes.
- If baking: place on greased cookie sheet and bake in a 400 degree oven for 10 - 15 minutes or until hot and crisp.
- Deep frying: heat fryer to 375 degrees.
- Place a potato ball on a slotted spoon and carefully place in hot oil.
- Don't over crowd the deep fryer.
- Gently keep potato balls separated.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Note: I have no idea how many ounces a package of Lipton Dry Onion Soup Mix is.
- I just guessed.
- I'm pretty sure there is only one size.
