Broccoli and Cheddar Potato Tots
A great side dish that kids will love!
Ingredients
- 5 small red potatoes
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup fresh broccoli, chopped
- ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel potatoes and place in a large pot, covered with water. Bring to a boil and let the potatoes boil for 5-7 minutes, until fork tender. Remove potatoes and let cool. Once cool, grate the potatoes in a large bowl and remove excess water.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Add flour, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley and black pepper to the bowl. Mix until a thick dough-like texture forms. Set aside.
In a food processor, chop broccoli into very small pieces. Add broccoli and cheese to the potato mixture and mix until evenly dispersed. Using your hands, mold heaping tablespoons of the mixture into a rectangular, tot-like shape and place on a plate.
Add olive oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Add tots and cook for 5-6 minutes, until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until browned. Transfer tots to the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
