- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 large eggs
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons melted margarine or 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- Water as needed (to adjust batter consistency)
For the Filling:

- 1 medium potato, diced
- 3 small carrots, diced
- 3 slices smoked beef
- 2 slices cheese (cut into rectangular pieces)
- 2 tablespoons margarine
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce

- Ground black pepper to taste
For Dipping:

- Bread crumbs as needed
Instructions
-
Prepare the Shell:
- In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, tapioca flour, and cornstarch.
- Add the eggs, salt, and melted margarine or cooking oil. Whisk until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Strain the batter through a fine sieve to remove any remaining lumps.
- Heat a non-stick skillet (22 cm diameter works well) over medium heat.
- Pour a spoonful of batter into the skillet, spreading it evenly to form a thin layer.
- Cook until the edges start to lift and the surface looks set. Flip to cook the other side briefly.
- Repeat the process until all the batter is used, creating a stack of thin, cooked shells.
-
Prepare the Filling:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the margarine.
- Sauté the finely chopped garlic until it turns golden brown.
- Add the diced potatoes, carrots, and smoked beef to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the beef is heated through.
- If needed, add a small amount of water to ensure the mixture does not stick to the pan.
- Season with salt, oyster sauce, and ground black pepper. Stir well and cook until the flavors are well combined. Set aside to cool.
-
Assemble the Risoles:
- Place a spoonful of the filling and a slice of cheese in the center of each shell.
- Fold the edges over the filling to enclose it completely, forming a neat, sealed package.
- Dip each risole into the beaten eggs, then coat with bread crumbs. Ensure each risole is evenly coated.
-
Fry the Risoles:
- Chill the coated risoles in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to help the bread crumbs adhere better.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large skillet over medium-low heat.
- Fry the risoles in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, turning them occasionally for even cooking.
- Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the risoles warm with your choice of dipping sauces or fresh chili peppers.
- Enjoy the crispy exterior and the delicious, savory filling inside!
