Tater tots are delicious crispy nuggets made from grated potatoes. Here’s an easy recipe for cooking them:
Ingredients:
– 3-4 medium potatoes
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– Salt, pepper, and onion powder (to taste)
– Vegetable oil or shortening for frying
Instructions:
1. Peel the potatoes and grate them using a cheese grater or a food processor.
2. Transfer the grated potatoes into a large bowl and mix in cornstarch, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Stir until well combined.
3. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form small nuggets. Repeat with remaining mixture.
4. Heat vegetable oil or shortening in a pan over medium-high heat (enough to cover about half of each tater tot).
5. Carefully place the tater tots into the hot oil, being sure not to crowd them. Cook for around 3 minutes on one side before flipping and cooking for another 2-3 minutes.
6. When they’re golden brown, remove the cooked tater tots with a slotted spoon or spatula, placing them onto paper towels to absorb excess oil.
7. Serve hot as a tasty side dish or snack. Enjoy!
