Intresting...I was just looking at potatoe ricers online to make shreaded potatoe hash browns....

dosent matter what kind of tot/hash brown you want...just fry them in BACON grease

Growing up, 'taters were fried in bacon grease as well as eggs for breakfast. We would actually have more longevity if, green vegetables smelled like bacon!

+1 for tater tots!

Not only are they far superior to any plain old fry, especially deep fried but they make really good hash browns in the morning also. Versatility wins.

Let's not confuse tater tots with tater coins. They are as different as they are similar. And tator coins > tator tots.

The Belgian style frite is the bestest ever.

That is the correct answer. The thread can be locked now.

Actually, I am changing my vote.

Demeris loaded baked potato... If you're in the Houston area and haven't had the 5ish lb artery clogging work of art, you're missing out!

Garlic cream cheese mashed potatoes, along with tonight's dinner of venison wellington, tenderloin sliced 3" thick, wrapped with bacon, pan seared and then placed into the pastry dough and baked just long enough for the pastry to be golden brown.

I can't wait, maybe some acorn squash with butter and brown sugar as well.

Asparagus with hollandaise would be good as well, unfortunately it is not in season.

I assume this thread is limited to a discussion of the white, starchy, Irish or Idaho potato and that I would be out of line to mention the better tasting and culturally superior sweet potato, baked, split open, and smothered in butter and brown sugar.

I suck at making pastry dough to wrap tenderloins in.

I think the instructions I got off the net were wrong, too little water, it was all crumbly and did not stick together.

Oh well, at least the meat was edible.

Chips (no not crisps), proper chips, cooked in Dripping. Artery hardening stuff - but proper scran.

Crisps? Dripping? Scran? Man, I love reading posts by you English blokes. It's like reading something written in code.

Back on topic: one of the previous posts made the point: the potato exists for only one reason: to be a delivery mode for grease. In that regard, the tater tot and deep-fried hashbrown (moreso than the pan-fried variety) are the summit of perfection: their increased surface area to volume ratio maximizes their delivery of grease to my gullet.

Crisps (U.K) = Flat, thin, fried potato shavings ..... Potato Chips (USA)
Dripping(U.K) = Beef Fat (drippings from the roast - yummy)
Scran (U.K military) = food

sweet potatoes are most welcome in this thread.
