These extra crispy chorizo potato balls are the perfect snack to enjoy while watching your favorite shows and movies. It is easy to make, taste delicious, and will be ready before you know it. Read below for the recipe and to find out more about Comcast’s FreePass Latino promotion going on now through October 9th.
Living in the United States, sometimes it can be hard to incorporate my Mexican culture into our daily lives. As a result, my two boys definitely know a lot more English than they do Spanish and they are definitely a couple of all American boys! That said, whenever I can, I try to teach them about Mexico and how life was for me growing up there. My husband and I try to speak to them in Spanish as often as we can, but that can be hard too! This is always something that I feel a little bad about, especially when my mom comes to visit from Mexico, because she only speaks Spanish.
One thing that I have tried, and that I think has helped a lot, is to have them watch shows in Spanish whenever I can find them. They love to watch cartoons and movies anyway, so I figure that I may as well include some Spanish training in there as well! However, it can be difficult to find many shows or movies in Spanish that they would enjoy. Fortunately there are options to make it easier, like the XFINITY Latino programming options. These packages have lots of great Spanish language programs including many for little kids. I am sure that this will be a great way to get kids to learn more Spanish!
Even if you are not ready to upgrade to Spanish language programming on XFINITY yet, now is a great time to test it out, because XFINITY is having a FreePass Latino promotion from September 26th through October 9th! During that time, you can watch all of your favorites, like Texas Trocas” – “The Riveras” – “Instructions not included” – “Ash vs. Evil Dead” – “Señora Acero” – “El Señor de los Cielos” and many more. Also, I would encourage you to check out X1 by XFINITY too for a brand new way to watch TV – find out more here.
Of course no Latino movie night is complete without some delicious snacks. Whenever I would sit down to watch my favorite shows when I was growing up, we had “antojitos” that we could enjoy while we watched. This is another part of teaching my boys about my culture. One of my favorite snacks to make are these extra crispy chorizo potato balls. They are so easy to make and so delicious!
All you will need are 4 russet potatoes, a package of chorizo, mozzarella cheese, various seasonings, panko bread crumbs, and eggs! You can put these together easily in less than 30 minutes and trust me, they probably won’t last much longer!
You start by washing and boiling the potatoes before mashing them and setting them aside.
Next you should cook the chorizo with some tasty spices and set that aside as well.
Once you have the mashed potatoes and chorizo ready, form a small ball of potatoes and create a small hole in the middle that you will then fill with chorizo and mozzarella cheese. Then you just need to cover it up with more potato.
The last step is to coat the chorizo potato balls in an egg wash and then panko bread crumbs before frying them in plenty of oil.
I really hope that you can enjoy this delicious recipe as much as I do and don’t forget to take advantage of the FreePass Latino through October 6th!
