How to make Spicy Mexican Bombas:

1.Before preparing this Mexican dish we must have all our utensils at hand and our ingredients well washed, chopped, weighed, etc.

2.The first step to making spicy Mexican bombs is to peel the potatoes and cook them with water to cover and a little salt.

3.Finely chop the onion, garlic, parsley, pepper and chilies. We booked.

4.In a pan, already hot with a splash of olive oil, lightly sauté the onion and garlic, then add the chilies, pepper, parsley and ground meat.

5.Once the meat for the Mexican bombs is well cooked, season with ketchup, salt, pepper, and a few drops of Tabasco sauce to taste.

6.Once the potatoes are cooked and have cooled down a bit, mash them until you get a puree and add the melted butter or margarine. Season to taste and reserve.

7.We take a little mashed potato and spread it in our hands, with the help of a spoon we place the meat filling, cover with more mashed potatoes and close forming a ball. We will pass each ball first through the flour, then in the egg, finally we roll with ground bread. Repeat these steps until you have finished forming the spicy Mexican bombs.

8.Heat the vegetable oil and fry the bombs until they are well browned. Watch the temperature of the oil so that it does not get too hot, this way you will prevent the bombs from burning before they are well cooked.

9.The spicy Mexican bombs are best enjoyed hot, when served with a little ketchup, Tabasco sauce or a rich white cheese sauce. We hope you enjoy our Mexican Potato Bombs Recipe.
