These tots are so much better than what you can buy at the store. Give it a try!
Do you have to use flour ?
Too much work for me. I would only do this if I was making it in mass production. I might do this sometime with a 15 pound bag of potatoes. I would roll them up stick them in the freezer and get them out as much as I need until they were gone.
NICE!
Alternatively, you can buy the 3 pound bag of tater tots from Walmart for $2.19 and have enough for a month.
Salt?
Can you air-fry them???
I came from the first tot video and I loved it but it wasn’t quite the type of tater tot I wanted and I scroll two videos down, find your second one and got exactly what I was looking for in a great video. I don’t usually suscribe but man you sure deserve it ♥️
A lot of other totts recipes on YouTube make this so much more of a process. I'm glad you kept it simple and quick.
Ok, in the last video, version 1.0, you said that pre-cookng the potatoes made the tots soggy. Now, you cook or par-boil them and don't say why you changed your mind
I wonder if baking the potatoes would help with having less water retention later on in the process.
The ring mold looks like it was used for some other substances
Que bonito delantar
Me encanta esa cuchara!!!!
Se ven realmente 😋 deliciosas yo las he preguntado pero les pongo huevo por temor a que se deshagan al freírlas
super super nice
👁👁👉👍
Thanks!!!
What neutral flavored oil did you use?
Thank you for making this great video. I am happy that I found a simple tater tot recipe!
Finally (2yrs ago), someone looked at “production”. In 2023, I can’t find tater tots (for a reasonable price, ) at all. So, twenty pounds of ‘taters later, they only cost time (with my wife, my life partner). I don’t see a downside to any of this!
