This month, Sue of Palatable Pastime told the Baking Bloggers that for October we were baking with potatoes. "Let's whip up some potatoes in a recipe and slide them into
an oven. Potatoes (of all types) can be incorporated into a baked
dish or baked first and finished later. Just at some point potatoes are in the oven." I am grateful to have some new recipes to try. This is what the #BakingBloggers are sharing...

I never really considered making tater tots before a few years ago. But, inspired by a few friends, I created Hand-formed Parmesan Tater Tots; and my recipe ended up being a community pick on Food52. So, tots have been a staple on our breakfast table whenever I have leftover potatoes. I don't typically roast potatoes for the sole purpose of making tots, but when I have a spud - or three - in my fridge, I'll make them. This morning I had three roasted potatoes and one roasted sweet potato, so I put them together and added a kiss of curry. These were a hit!
- 3 roasted potatoes, cooled
- 1 roasted sweet potatoes, cooled
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- freshly ground sea salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- canola oil
Procedure
Line a baking dish parchment and lightly grease it with canola oil. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using about a teaspoon of the potato mixture, form it into a cylinder about 1 inch long. Place on baking sheet and repeat until all the tots are made.

Bake about 35-40 minutes, turning once about 20 minutes into the cooking time.
Well, of course you make homemade tater tots. I have never thought to use my leftover potatoes this way. Thanks for the inspiration.
