Say goodbye to frozen, store-bought Tater tots and say hi to easy and yummy homemade tater tots! These golden brown and crispy delights are made from fresh potatoes and seasoned to perfection.
1: Grate the potatoes and submerge them in ice-cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
2: Squeeze out as much water as you can and lay it on a cloth to dry for 5 minutes.
3: Add the potatoes into a pan along with butter and dried thyme, and cook on medium flame until softened, stirring regularly.
4: Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, then add corn flour, garlic powder, salt, black pepper powder, and red chili powder. Mix well.
5: Shape the mixture into small oval shapes, place them on a tray/plate, and freeze for at least 45 minutes to an hour.
6: Dust lightly with corn flour and fry in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.
