  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4-5 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale

Crispy smashed tots:

  • 3/4 a bag of tater tots
  • Spray olive oil
  • Salt & pepper

Sauce:

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp. mayo
  • 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1 cucumber, seeds removed & diced
  • 1/2 cup pickled onions, diced
  • 1 bunch parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeds removed & diced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven according to the instructions on the tater tot bag. While the oven is preheating, prep all of the ingredients.
  2. On a sheet pan, spread out the frozen tater tots on parchment paper, spray with oil, & season with salt & pepper. Pop the tater tots into the oven when the oven is ready & cook according to the packaging.
  3. Once they're done, take them out and use the bottom of a glass to gently smash each tot until they are flattened but still intact. Pop the smashed tots back in the oven and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until they are super crispy and golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  4. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients, and add in the crispy tots mix, serve & enjoy!
