2 large garlic cloves (minced)

Steps to Make Potato Roll-Ups with Chicken and Bell Pepper Filling:
Step 1: Prepare the Potato Dough
Cook the Potatoes: Start by boiling the potatoes in salted water until they are fully cooked and soft (about 20 minutes, depending on size). Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly before peeling.
Mash the Potatoes: Once peeled, mash the potatoes using a potato masher or pass them through a ricer for a smooth consistency. Let the mashed potatoes cool to room temperature.
Mix the Dough Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with the eggs, finely chopped onion, finely diced red bell pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir in the flour (or cornstarch), 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix everything together until the ingredients are well combined and a dough-like consistency is achieved. The mixture should be soft but hold its shape.
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Then, add the diced red and green bell peppers and sauté for another 5 minutes until the peppers begin to soften.
Cook the Chicken: Add the diced or shredded chicken to the pan with the vegetables and season with salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Cook everything together for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the flavors are well combined. Remove the filling from the heat and stir in 20 g of grated cheese. Set the filling aside to cool slightly.
