Baked Zucchini Tater Tots Food

4 INGREDIENT ZUCCHINI TATER TOTS

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and cook potatoes for 20-30 minutes, until fork tender but still have some give in the middle. Drain water and let potatoes cool until they are comfortable to handle. You want them to still be warm.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grate potatoes on the large side of a box grater and put into a large bowl. Grate each zucchini and squeeze out the liquid using a clean dishtowel. Place grated zucchini into the bowl with the potatoes and add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Use your hands to mix everything together.
• Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Use your hands to form small cylinders with the mixture. Use about 1 tablespoon per tater tot. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes to allow them to firm up.
• Brush the top of each tater tot with a small amount of olive oil and sprinkle each one with salt. Bake tater tots until browned a crispy, about 30 minutes flipping halfway though. Serve with ketchup if desired.

BAKED ZUCCHINI TATER TOTS

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a medium pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 8-10 minutes, until a fork can pierce the edges. Do not overcook or they will be too soft to grate. Drain and rinse in cold water immediately, then pat them dry. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, grate your zucchini onto paper towels or a clean dish towel. Then squeeze out as much water as you can over your kitchen sink. Transfer the shredded zucchini to a large mixing bowl and then grate the potatoes into the same bowl and add the seasoning. Mix well.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F / 218°C and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Use your hands to shape the mixture into cylinder shapes, using approx. 1 tablespoon of the mixture for each one. Keep the tater tots small for a crispier texture. Place each one on your prepared tray and repeat with the remaining mixture. You will get 24-30 tater tots.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, then carefully flip them over and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until desired crispiness is reached.

• Place the grated zucchini in cheesecloth or a kitchen towel and wring all of the excess water out (it will be a lot!).
