- Yields:
-
48 Tater tots
- Serves:
- 6
ingredients
- 24 ounces Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes (cold)
- 3⁄4 cup flour
- 8 ounces Crystal Farms® Shredded Cheddar Cheese (I also like Crystal Farms Pizza Blend)
- 2 1⁄2 - 3 cups breadcrumbs (Panko crumbs preferably)
- vegetable oil or canola oil
directions
- Line baking sheet or large plate with wax paper.
- Pour panko crumbs Into medium bowl.
- In a large bowl combine mashed potatoes, flour and cheese. Spoon a dollop of mixture into panko crumbs. Coat completely while simultaneously shaping into tater tot shape ( or leave as a ball). If you find dough too sticky to manipulate add a bit more flour. Place tot on wax paper and repeat with remaining potato dough.
- Heat skillet to medium/medium high heat and add about an inch of oil. Once oil is hot add tater tots. They will turn golden brown on one side ( after a couple minutes) and then flip. Do NOT over crowd! Work in batches and make sure to keep an eye on them so they don't burn. Serve with your favorite condiment.
- You can make tot shapes a day ahead and keep in refrigerator covered with plastic wrap.
