Place the bowl with the potato mixture into the microwave. Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave (it will be hot). Stir the mixture thoroughly with a spoon. Return to the microwave and continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture thickens significantly and forms a dough-like consistency.

Once the potato mixture has thickened, add 1/2 cup of tapioca starch to the bowl. Mix thoroughly with a spoon until the tapioca starch is fully incorporated and the mixture forms a cohesive, stretchy, and smooth dough. Transfer the potato dough into a sturdy piping bag.

Heat 3 cups of vegetable oil in a large pan or deep pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350-375°F. Carefully pipe small, bite-sized pieces of the potato dough directly into the hot oil, using kitchen scissors to cut them off from the piping bag. Fry the potato pieces in batches, if necessary, to avoid overcrowding the pan.
