Hi there what is Tater Tots?

**PlexusCountry** · 08-18-2014, 08:46 AM

It's like shredded potatoes (hash browns) that have been formed into little balls. You can deep fry or bake them.

Goodnagirl...I see that you are in Australia! What a delight! Visiting there is on my bucket list;-D Here in the US, you can buy a frozen product -- I would never try to make these myself and I consider myself a pretty good cook - called tater tots. It's pretty much as PlexusCountry described them so maybe on your side of the world they are called something else. Hope this helps;-D
