Potato Puppies Recipes

Steps:

• Make the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Make a well in the center, add the egg and milk, and whisk until smooth. Transfer the batter to tall glass, then chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Make the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into ¼-inch cubes, then transfer to a large bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for 1 hour to remove excess starch, then drain.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and blanch for 3-4 minutes, until cooked ¾ way through. Drain and rinse with cold water. Pat the potatoes dry and transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle the flour over the potatoes and toss to coat.
• Make the cheese dogs: Heat 4-5 inches of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Cut each hot dog in half crosswise.
• Cut the mozzarella block into 4 rectangles to match the size of the hot dog halves.
• Thread a hot dog half and a cheese stick onto each wooden chopstick. Lightly coat in flour.
• Transfer the potatoes to a plate or baking sheet. Add the panko bread crumbs to a separate plate or the same baking sheet.
• Dip a cheese dog in the batter to coat fully, then place on the potatoes, packing tightly to adhere. Coat in the panko bread crumbs. Repeat with the remaining cheese dogs.
• Fry the potato hot dogs, 2 at a time, in the hot oil for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a paper towel to drain.
• Sprinkle the potato hot dogs with sugar and drizzle with ketchup.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• To make the sauce, mix the mayo, mustard, chili paste, relish, and ketchup in a small bowl. Set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a fork, poke a few holes into each Idaho® Russet Potato. Rub each potato with olive oil and salt and place on a baking sheet. Bake the potatoes for about 1 hour, until tender.
• Peel the potatoes and run them through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Add the scallions, Parmesan, egg, and breadcrumbs. Stir well to combine. Add the sour cream, starting with about half, and stir to combine. Add more as needed until the mixture is smooth, but not too wet. It should be stiffer than mashed potatoes.
• One by one, stick a popsicle stick into a hot dog starting at the cut end and putting it about 3/4 of the way through the dog. Take about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture in your hand and press it flat into your palm. Wrap it around the hot dog, adding more as needed. Press to tightly seal. Repeat until you run out of the potato mixture or the hot dogs.
• Heat about 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a heavy bottom pot to 375 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the potato dogs, flipping a few times to evenly brown on all sides. Remove from oil to a drying rack or paper towel and season with a pinch of salt.
• Serve the potato dogs with the sauce on the side, or drizzled on top if desired.

Steps:

• For the dip: Combine the sour cream, honey mustard and lemon juice in a bowl and mix until well blended.
• For the hushpuppies: Fill a medium heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to come 1/3 of the way up the sides. Place over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, mix together the corn bread mix, cornmeal, onions, eggs, sweet potato puree and bacon until well combined. When the oil reaches 350 degrees F, carefully drop the batter by the heaping tablespoonful into the oil using 2 spoons or a small ice cream scoop. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a tray lined with paper towels. Serve immediately with creamy honey mustard dip on the side.

Steps:

• 1. Combine potatoes and eggs. Drop by tablespoon into hot oil. Fry until brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prick sweet potato several times with a fork.
• Heat sweet potato in a microwave on high until tender, about 6 minutes. Cut potato in half and scoop flesh out of the skin into a bowl; discard skin. Mash potato with a fork or potato masher and transfer about 1 cup to a large bowl. Save any remaining sweet potato for another use.
• Mix whole wheat flour, applesauce, and eggs in the large bowl with the sweet potato until a dough forms. Turn dough out on a well-floured surface and roll dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter or cut dough into strips with a pizza cutter. Arrange cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
