Yield 9 large tots

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 block low-moisture mozzarella, small block
12 slices pepperoni
3 ½ cups hash brown
1 tablespoon italian seasoning
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 egg, beaten
oil, for frying
marinara sauce, for dipping

Steps:

  • Cut block of mozzarella into small cubes, about a ½ inch (1 ¼ cm).
  • Cut pepperoni in half.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine hash browns, Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder, and egg. Mix well.
  • Grab a small handful of the hash brown mixture and flatten out in the palm of your hand.
  • Place 1 or 2 slices of pepperoni and a cube of cheese on top.
  • Fold the hash brown mixture around the cheese and pepperoni. Squeeze and compress until the mixture completely covers the filling and stays in a cylindrical form. Repeat until all of the mixture is used.
  • Freeze tots for 20+ minutes.
  • In a large saucepan, heat oil to 350˚F (180˚C). Fry tots in batches, three at a time, until golden brown. Drain on paper towel.
  • Serve immediately with marinara sauce.
  • Enjoy!
