Steps

Important Notes:
Wet your hands when shaping the nuggets. This stops the mixture sticking and makes them much easier to form.
Halfway through cooking give the nuggets a light spray of cooking oil on any dry areas so they crisp up evenly.
I used Carisma potatoes, which have around 25 percent fewer carbs than regular potatoes. You can swap them for russet, sweet potato or any potatoes you prefer.
