Cheddar Cheese Filling |
Good quality ingredients will always give good quality Pyrohys |
Peel old(russets) potatoes (not new because they are to sweet) and boil untill cooked. Drain. (let evapourate for a while to insure dry potatoes) Mash the potatoes well and start adding grated cheese to potatoes. The hot potatoes will melt the cheese (keep potatoes on lowest heat but becareful not to scorch the bottoms) While mashing Add onions and salt and pepper to taste. Cool the filling before using. |
