Step 1
Boil potatoes until fork-tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and let cool until you can handle them.
Step 2
Peel cooled potatoes and mash with minced shallot, 2 eggs, salt, and pepper until smooth and thick.
Step 3
Form potato mixture into 8–10 oval patties, each about 2 inches long and 0.5 inches thick.
Step 4
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Pan-fry perkedel 3–4 minutes per side until edges are deep golden.
Step 5
Push perkedel to one side. Add remaining 2 eggs to empty skillet, season with salt, and cook until whites set, ~2 minutes.
Step 6
Plate perkedel and omelette. Serve with sambal, peanut sauce, and krupuk on the side; garnish with cilantro if desired.
