Instructions

Prepare the Potato Base

  1. Peel and boil the potatoes until tender.

Make the Chicken Filling

  2. Add finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and mushrooms.

  3. Cook for 7–10 minutes until everything is golden and fragrant.

  4. Season with salt, pepper, and stir in chopped parsley.

Form the Rolls

  2. Spoon a portion of the filling along one edge and roll it up.

  2. Optional: brush with melted butter or sprinkle cheese on top.
