Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel and chop the potatoes. Chop the scallions and shred the cheddar cheese.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a large bowl. Pour in the milk and mash until smooth. Stir in the scallions and cheese; mix well.
  4. Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture into the center of each tortilla and fold in half; secure with a toothpick.
  5. In a large skillet, add enough oil to reach 1 inch in depth and heat over medium-high heat. Fry the tortillas until crispy. Serve with ranch dressing for dipping.
