Notes

NOTES:
* You will get a very crispy exterior of the chops if you use the Japanese panko breadcrumbs.
* Do not overcrowd the pan while deep frying or else the potato chops will break apart.
* You can use any filling for this recipe.
* Make sure that you make a fairly thin coating of the potato aroung the filling.
