What’s not to love about deep fried potato patties? This kid-friendly recipe is air fried so way healthier, and has minced meat added in. If I had some corn kernels I would have added them too. I swear by my Philips XXL Airfryer. See why: https://budgetpantry.com/5-reasons-why-i-love-the-new-philips-airfryer-xxl/ My 4-yo helped me prepare the potatoes: And she helped me mash mash everything together too: Here’s the simple recipe. I hope you and your kid love it too! Kid-friendly Airfried Begedil (budgetpantry.com) Makes 10-12 pieces What you need: 4 large potatoes 1 tablespoon oil Pinch of salt 1 tablespoon crispy shallot (pic here or you can use fry your own) 1 tablespoon chopped spring onions 1 teaspoon chopped parsley or parsley flakes (optional) Dash of pepper (optional) 1 egg, beaten (for dipping) 1-2 tablespoon corn flour (for coating) For minced meat: 100g minced meat (pork, chicken or beef are all fine) 1 tablespoon oil 1 teaspoon soy sauce Steps: Fry the mince meat: In a pot, heat oil and add the minced meat and soy sauce. Fry for a few minutes til no longer pink. Set aside. Peel the potatoes and quarter them. Toss with oil to coat. Air fry at 180C for 18 minutes until soft enough to mash. Mash with a whisk or fork to the consistency you like – I prefer to have a bit of chunk but you can mash till creamy and smooth. (If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the potatoes in the oven at 180C for 20 minutes or so) Add the cooked minced meat, crispy shallots, salt, spring onions, parsley (if using) and pepper (if using). Mix well and shape into patties with your hands. Dip each patty in egg followed by a bit of corn flour, just to coat lightly so that the patty retains its shape in the air fryer. Spray or coat with a bit of oil and air fry for 12 minutes at 200C. (If deep frying, skip the flour. Just dip in egg and deep fry direct til golden brown) (Tip: you can cheat and add more veggies like corn kernels, peas, carrots to up your kid’s veggie intake!)

Make fun food! It is always funny to me how a slice or two of bread for a casual snack sounds excessive (at least to me), but transform them into a dessert and it becomes a snack that just disappears from the plate (into my tummy) within seconds! I had a few slices of bread which were just starting to go stale. The expiry date was the next day and there was no way we would be able to finish it. I sometimes toast them and make bread crumbs to coat my chicken fillets with, but most of the time I’m too lazy to do it. So in order not to waste food, I made French Toast Nutella Rolls with the bread yesterday! Ok I didn’t exactly use Nutella, but I used Ovomaltine, which I bought from Candy Empire for $10.80 and later found in Sheng Siong for $6.90. It’s really simple: choose your fruits (I used strawberries and bananas), spread a layer of Nutella or Ovomaltine on your bread, arrange the chopped fruits at the edge of the bread, roll it up and lightly press the seams down on your plate or work bench. Dip in beaten egg and fry in a little olive oil. Rotate all sides with a pair of tongs till they’re just turning golden. My aunt and I had two flavours each and Jason polished off the last one. Leftover bread? No problem! This would be a fun activity to do with your kids or nieces and nephews. If you’re not into strawberries and bananas, you could also use blueberries, blackberries, apples and even cheese (chocolate and cheese is super yums)! Have fun rollin’! French Toast Nutella Rolls (budgetpantry.com) Serves: 3 What I used: 6 pieces bread 2-3 teaspoons chopped strawberries 2-3 teaspoons chopped banana Ovomaltine or Nutella, or any chocolate spread 1 egg, beaten Oil for frying Icing sugar, for dusting Steps: Remove the crusts of bread. Flatten with a rolling pin. Spread Ovomaltine/Nutella on each slice of bread. Spoon fruit on the edge and roll, pressing down lightly as you go along. The chocolate spread will hold the roll together. End with the seams facing down. Heat up a little oil in your frying pan. Dip each roll into beaten egg, then fry till golden on all sides. Dust with icing sugar. Serve hot.
