Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Neutral cooking oil, for frying
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
One 12-ounce bottle toasted lager
1/4 cup whole milk
3 ounces white Cheddar, grated
3 ounces low-moisture mozzarella, grated
3 ounces provolone, grated
Kosher salt
9 ounces frozen potato tots
2 to 4 ounces sustainable caviar

Steps:

  • Preheat the cooking oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • For the beer cheese: Add butter and flour to a small saucepan over medium heat, then stir and cook until the butter and flour are fully blended, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the beer and milk, whisking to combine. Bring this to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Slowly stir in the grated cheeses and cook on low heat until incorporated. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • Add the potato tots to the oil and cook until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to the wire rack-lined sheet tray. Season immediately with salt.
  • Put the tots in a large shallow dish. Pour over the stringy cheese sauce. Dollop with copious amounts of the caviar.
