Tater Tots

Method

Tater Tots Preparation

  1. 1

    Bake the Tater Tots

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the frozen tater tots evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Season the Tater Tots

    Sprinkle the black truffle sea salt, garlic powder, and grated Parmesan cheese over the tater tots.

  3. 3

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through the baking time for even cooking.

Cheese Fondue Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the minced garlic and white wine. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

  2. 5

    Add Cream Cheese

    Add the softened cream cheese to the saucepan and stir until melted and well combined.

  3. 6

    Incorporate Cheddar

    Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until fully melted and smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add milk a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

  4. 7

    Thicken with Cornstarch

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Stir this into the cheese sauce to thicken it slightly.

  5. 8

    Finish with Truffle Oil

    Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the black truffle oil for added flavor.
