Spicy Garlic Potato Bites

I make sure my freezer is always well stocked because I entertain a lot of guests. Which means snacks! My freezer has two compartments specifically dedicated to remade snacks. Mind you, these are all homemade frozen snacks. They range from samosas, spring rolls, to mini pies and turnovers. One of my favourite snacks are these spicy garlic potato bites.

They are so easy to make and taste amazing. The only thing I have to do is deep fry them until golden and serve them with a garlic mayo dip. It's a keeper.
