1. Bring a large pot of salted water to boiling temperature. Boil the peeled and chopped potatoes until tender. Remove, and pat them dry.
2. Mash the potatoes until lump free, and then add in the cornflour, 50g parmesan and chives combine (keep the remaining parmesan for serving).
3. Chop the mozzarella into small cubes, approximately 1.5cm wide.
4. Whisk the egg in a small bowl, and make sure the potato chips are finely crushed and in a seperate bowl.
5. Taking a large tbsp of the potato mixture, flatten out int he palm of your hand. Add a cube of the cheese into the centre, and roll into balls, ensuring the cheese is well covered.
6. Dip in the egg to coat and then roll in the crushed chips, making sure they are evenly coated.
7. Repeat with remaining potato mixture until you have approximately 20 balls ready for cooking.
8. Spray with a little cooking oil, and then bake in the air fryer at 170º for 10-12 minutes, until golden and crispy. Ensure you turn them over half way to help keep the cheese in the centre and they are evenly cooked.
9. Whilst the balls are cooking, melt the butter in a frying pan and add the garlic, herbs and salt, gently cooking until the garlic has mellowed.
10. Turn off the heat, and once the balls are done, brush the garlic butter over each one, ensuring they are evenly coated.
11. Sprinkle over the remaining parmesan and serve immediately!
