Living Better Café is back and what better way, to celebrate a long wait. Are you crazy in love with Potatoes? Like the creator of L.B.C is crazy for potatoes. Yes She is crazy about Potatoes. Katrina Said, Did someone say... Tater Tots? or am I going crazy for real? Just joking or maybe not. It's Tater Tots on the menu, and they are very inexpensive to make to. What better way to come back, and have everyone tastes buds singing.

Tater Tots

Adapted from: https://thechicsite.com/2013/10/29/mashed-potato-tater-tots/

Serves: 3 dozens

1 1/2 c. mashed potatoes, cold (you can use either homemade mashed potatoes, or  boxes mashed potatoes) * I prefer homemade mashed potatoes better.
1 large eggs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c.  Scallions
Panko Bread Crumbs

Directions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, blend together mashed potato, eggs, Scallions and flour. Stir until mixture is incorporated.

2. Using an ice cream scooper, scoop cold mashed potatoes into bread crumbs.

3. Roll the potatoes in the bread crumbs until completely covered.

4. Using your fingers form the potatoes into a small log.

5. In a large Dutch oven skillet pan added 1/2 inch of oil. Heat the oil until it gets good in hot. You want to cook the tater tots in batches. Turning the tater tots about 20-30 seconds to cook completely.

6. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to drain excess oil. Season with Himalayan salt and serve with Ketchup, or Barbecue sauce.
