Rellenos de Papas | Puerto Rican Stuffed Potato Balls - EASY!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- DISCLAIMER: In Puerto Rico, we use the term “rellenos de papas” instead of “papas rellenas” because “relleno” is treated as a noun rather than an adjective. A “relleno” refers to any food that is stuffed, which is why we say “rellenos de papas” (stuffed potatoes). 💕
Welcome! Today, we are making a classic Puerto Rican fritter, rellenos de papas (stuffed potato balls)! This popular Puerto Rican street food that you will often find in bakeries or at food kiosks in Puerto Rico is a delicious treat and very easy to make. They’re golden and crispy on the outside with a soft, velvety inner potato wall, and stuffed with a delicious ground meat filling. So, let’s get into it!
____________
Ingredients: potato dough
• Roughly 1lb potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tbsp corn starch, plus more for coating
• 2 tbsp real butter
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• salt to taste
• black pepper to taste
• 1 packet chicken bullion for the pot to boil potatoes
Quick Picadillo:
• 1/2 lb ground meat of choice
• 1 tsp pimientos, chopped
• 2 tsp sofrito
• 2-3 tsp tomato sauce
• 1/2 packet Goya Sazón
• 1/2 packet chicken bouillon (sub for beef bouillon if using ground beef or pork)
• 1/4 tsp oregano
•1/4 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• black pepper and salt to taste, if needed
✨Verses of the Week:✨
“You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.”
-Luke 6:36 NLT
“My heart has heard you say, ‘Come and talk with me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”

Hi friends! From reading some of your comments, I learned that “rellenos de papas” are not exclusive to Puerto Rican cooking. I saw that so many other cultures, including some German and Scottish friends, tell me how they have a similar recipe! How cool! So interesting how we’re all connected somehow. 🥹🙏🏽
FYI: I noticed a few comments concerning the background music. The “ticking” sound in the beginning is a soft drum. It’s simply a soft Lofi beat for the vibes lol.
Thanks for watching!
😅Cynthia cyc6😅😅cyc6😅c6😅c6vv7v😅
What kind of oil did you use? Like, Vegetable oil, olive oil, or maybe corn oil?
@@Jay.Leb. I used Canola oil
I have a Puerto Rican ex too! I told my former MIL that I wanted to learn. I love baccalo. Do you make baccala salad? And I really love plantains. So much good food. ❤
@@mariscookingpr Thank you!!! 😁
My ex husband is puertorican and I remember making those for him I learned how to make a lot of Puerto Rican meals, and now I sometimes infuse Mexican and Puerto Rican food 😋
That is awesome! ❤️
HalleluYah!! The good things we take relieved from our experiences.
Dang now that you mention that I think I would like a infused Mexican and Puerto Rico dish
@@tigjuanmurdaugh2298I thought you were gonna side you would like an infused Puerto Rican wife
Oh my goodness! Thank you….my Abuela made these for us all the time but when she died the recipe went with her……I have tried and tried, but could never do them. Now I can! Thank you for bringing Mama back to me!
You are very welcome!! 🥺
❤
My adoptive parents were
Puerto Rican (Esquilin-Torres) and my mom could really cook. She passed away in 2014 and my dad passed just last month. I am definitely going to order the cookbook and try to make some of these recipes. Thank you for this wonderful video
Oh, you are very welcome! Also, my deepest condolences to your loss! 😭 Happy cooking, and let me know if you need help!
Sorry for your loss. I have been there, so I know how that feels.
I like how you pulled out the old-school cookbooks 👌🏿
A must!
So love that
Egg yoke makes it rich egg white makes it more workable ❤ I’ve made it cheese in side for my cousins kids and they loved it nice one
My sister in law is from Mexico & I love Mexican food. I can't wait to try Puerto Rican recipes & I'm gonna begin with this one! P.S. I raise chickens & fresh eggs are awesome. Just put the whole egg in there! Also, I LOVE that you include scripture in your description! PTL!
Omg, my dream is to have chickens in my yard one day! Countryside Puerto Rico vibes 🥹😂 Hope you enjoy the recipe! God bless!
Mari mami you are the BEST! No lies boo. Keep sending us those beautiful videos Nena!!
Jajajajaja awww! Thank you, I will!
My husband loves these, I'm going to surprise him for Sundays dinner. Thanks a bunch
Sounds good, I'm sure he will live it❤
Oh my goodness! Whenever I go to California I try to make it to the only Puerto Rican restaurant I know of there. These are my absolute main reason for going there. Thank you so much for this video.
You’re very welcome!
Just wonder wthat the name of the restaurant is. I'm in So Cal and miss my father's cooking. Thank you in advance.
@@manuelvoss1973 It's called Porto's Bakery and Cafe on Beach Blvd in Buena Park. They do have other locations but I don't know them. The Beach location is the closest to my mom's in Cerritos. You can probably google their locations.
@@jodiebristow3210 Thanks Jodie. I didn’t expect to hear Porto’s. We’ve always thought of Porto’s as Cuban so when said “Puerto Rican” my ears popped up. Thanks for taking the time to respond
Have you tired senor Big Ed’s in cypress? Portos I feel is more Cuban
I can’t wait to make these to serve my family.
Great job on your first rellnos de papa. They look yummy!!!!
Thank you!
I am so excited to try this recipe. I am a New Yorker, and l left a long time ago, and l am so happy to see some delicious food 😋
Hope you enjoy!
My Cuban Mother used to make these for us along with croquetas when we were young. I will definitely be making some soon. The only difference I can see from my mom's version was that she would bread them first before frying them and that we called them "Papas Rellenas." Thank you for posting this video; it reminds me of good times with the family.
ohhhh I like the idea of breading them
soy de Ponce resido en la Florida. al ver tu video me trajo recuerdos de mi madre y mi ninez. Gracias.
Awww de nada! 🥺
Oh my God I am so making this weekend. My mom could never figure out how to make these but however they came out they were still delicious. Thank you very much for what's going to be a staple in my house till I leave this earth 😊
You are so welcome!
Excellent video, I have been watching, worth recommending
My favorite Puerto Rican dish!!
Love my puerto rican food 🥱👍👌💯💯💯
I've had those only once in my life, back in the '70's, when two Puerto Rican secretaries brought them into the office where I worked. I was amazed because I thought they were just potatoes. I wasn't expecting the filling. And I recall loving the taste. Thank you for revealing the magic behind these miracles. Definitely going to try them.
You are so welcome!! Let me know if you have any questions regarding the recipe!
Even though you said it was the first time you've made rellenos de Papas,I have to tell you,they looked delicious,you did good for someone who made them for the first time,I wish I would've been there,to give one of those rellenos the taste test, and my approval,which I am sure it would of been a good rating,great job cooking that Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 food we love.🥰😍
Awe! Thanks so much! 🥹
Thank you for the message God bless you and your family 💙💖🕊️🙏
You are so welcome! Same to you!
Shalom, yhis is my first time on your channel. The papas frita look really delicious. I'm gonna attempt to make them this weekend👍🏼. Thank You for sharing. Have a blessed beautiful day.
Papas fritas means french fries or potato chips in Spanish. These are rellenos de papa because relleno literally means stuffed/filled and papa is of course potato.
Thank you for making your videos. I’m currently stationed overseas and there is no Spanish food over here. I was never the best cook so I always felt like my food came out bad but with your videos I’ve been able to cook up so much good Puerto Rican food and it makes me cry because it reminds me of home so thank you so much.❤
You are so welcome! 🥹
I lived in Puerto Rico when I was 10 and remember we got these in San Juan!! I never new what they were called, I’m 60 now and so thrilled to see a recipe and I didn’t just imagine them ❤️
I tried these for the first time at Portos, oh very delicious ,and a Cuban sandwich with banana chips ,yummy
Thank you for your amazing powerful Puerto Rican food. Thank you .... Blessings to you....🙏😇🎉🇺🇲🇮🇱🇵🇷
@@ellievazquez5293 Thank you!! Same to you!
Girl they look so delicious.
Hi Mari, I've tried making these before, unsuccessfully!! But I'm gonna try again using your recipe. I'm sure I'll get it right this time. 🇵🇷
My husband was in the Navy and we lived in Puerto Rico for a few years. There was a small restaurant (?) that we ate at pretty often. Rellenos de papas were my favorite. The potatoes were rough mashed and they were huge. Thank you for showing us how to make them.
Ms. Maria
I just found out my son loves this recipe. Thank you for putting it up. I would make it for him. I would challenge myself by using two different ingredients which is sweet potatoes and turkey ground meat. Just to see how if he would like that also. Lol. Thank you for sharing. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
I'm making some right now ❤😂🎉😊😊
My grandma added capers, green olives and a chopped boiled egg to the picadillo. It was so goodm. Im gonna make these. Thanks
I'm definitely making these ❤ thank you also for the Bible verse 🙏
You are so welcome!
Good job girl! I guess first time is a charm for you. I’ve been making them since I was tall enough to reach the counter and my Dad made me a stool bc I always loved helping in the kitchen. First time watcher, I’ll keep my eye out.

Thank you so much, I have been trying to find this recipe for 50 years. I was about 8 years old when I had these in Puerta Rico and never knew what they were called. I always asked for potato balls. These are the best food on the planet if they are made correctly. I'm so grateful to have stumbled upon your video. 💖💖👍👍🙏🙏👍👍💖💖
