1. Parboil potatoes, then peel and shred.

2. In wok or Dutch oven, heat oil to 350ºF.

3. Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine potatoes, cheese, eggs, flour, onion, baking powder, salt and pepper; mix together well.

4. When oil is hot (it should sizzle when small amount of batter is added), drop in batter a tablespoon at a time. Cook until golden, turning once.

*For milder flavor, substitute Cabot Monterey Jack or Mild Cheddar.
