Preparation

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This ensures that the tater tots cook evenly and become crispy.

Arrange Tater Tots
Spread the frozen tater tots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overcrowded for even cooking.

Drizzle with Oil
Drizzle the vegetable oil over the tater tots, ensuring they are lightly coated. This will help them become crispy.

Season with Salt and Pepper
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper evenly over the tater tots for flavor.

Bake
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip the tater tots halfway through for even browning.
