How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose potatoes
- Choose potatoes that feel firm, heavy, are intact, and have a smooth surface.
- Yellow potatoes will be tastier and sweeter than those that are slightly white.
- Avoid choosing shriveled potatoes, those that feel soft when squeezed, or have black eyes, are rotten, or leaking.
- Absolutely do not choose potatoes with green skin or sprouting as they are extremely dangerous to health.
How to choose good chicken breast
- To prepare a delicious dish, you should choose chicken breast pieces with white skin, as these come from larger chickens with tastier and chewier meat; younger chickens tend to have mushy meat.
- If you buy skinless chicken breast, observe the layer of fat on the chicken. You should choose the fat that is white in color for better taste.
- Choose breast pieces with fewer striations in the meat fibers. The more striations there are, the less fat and protein there will be; moreover, these lines will make it harder for the chicken to absorb flavors and sauces during cooking.

Put the boiled potatoes in a bowl, then use a fork to mash the potatoes until smooth.
Next, add to the bowl the chopped chicken breast, carrots, onions, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon of dill powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and a little pepper. Mix well until the mixture is completely combined.
-
Shape and fry the cakes
Take a small amount of the potato filling in your hand and roll it into a ball, then gently press with your hand to flatten the cake slightly.
