Fish and Chip Tots
December 7, 2011
The sauce was as easy as put this stuff in a food processor and turn it on.
I undercooked the potatoes a little so that they wouldn't mash smooth. I wanted a little texture in the tots.
There is a little more fish in here than it appears. About a pound and a quarter of cod to 3 medium potatoes.
Shaping them is kinda fun actually. Then a quick dredge and toss em in the oil.
So so so good.
I could write "yum" a million times on this blog.
The crispy exterior broke way to a piping hot mass of potato flecked with juicy flakey cod and just enough herby flavor from the thyme. The creamy vinegar flavor from the sauce was the perfect compliment to the earthy tots.
Fish and Chip Tots
- Tots
- 3 Medium Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 1.25 Pounds Cod
- 1 Teaspoon Thyme
- 1 Egg
- Salt and Pepper
- 2 Tablespoons Flour (plus a little more)
- Oil for Frying
- Sauce
- Mayo
- Pickle
- Sriracha
- Vinegar
Instructions
- For the tots I roasted 3 medium yukon potatoes. Go a little underdone just so you get some chunks and texture in the tots. Chop up the potatoes and place in a bowl with a pound and a quarter of cod chopped up into small pieces. Add in some thyme, an egg, salt and pepper, and a few tablespoons of flour to hold everything together. Mix well and add a little more flour if it seems to need it to stick together properly. Form into tot shapes, coat in a thin layer of flour and fry until browned.
- For the sauce, just some mayo, pickle, vinegar, and sriracha in the food processor.
