Bacon

Equipment you will use

Frying Pan

Transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Finely chop the bacon when cooled.

Cooking Oil

Equipment you will use

Food Processor

Box Grater

Frying Pan

Place 4 sheets of paper towels on a countertop. Dump the potatoes on top of the paper towels and fold the towels over the potatoes. Squeeze as much moisture out of the potatoes as possible. (This is the trick to make perfect tater tots; too much moisture will result in little pieces of potato all around your skillet when frying.)

Paper Towels

Frying Pan

Combine the potatoes with the bacon, flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Ingredients you will need

Potato

Bacon

All Purpose Flour

Salt

Mix well to combine. Form the potato mixture into small logs using a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon. Working in batches, fry the tots in the skillet until golden brown, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Adjust the heat, as needed, to keep the oil at 300 degrees F.
