Boil the potatoes in their skins for 18 minutes, until tender.
Dice the onion finely and saute it with the ground beef in a pan for 6 minutes.
Peel and mash the potatoes, then mix with the beef and onion, fresh cilantro, black pepper, and salt.
Shape the mixture into 10 small patties and chill for 8 minutes to firm up.
Beat the eggs and coat the patties in the egg.
Cook the begedil in hot oil for 2 minutes on each side, until browned.
💡 Tip: Do not mash the potatoes completely smooth; a lightly grainy texture keeps the patties from spreading in the pan after they are dipped in egg.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve begedil hot like a warm appetizer, with optional hot sauce and yogurt cucumber.
