Ingredients

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup shredded Parmesan

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic

1/4 teaspoon granulated onion

1/4 ounce chopped fresh chives

2 eggs

1/2 tablespoon sriracha

2 1/2 pounds fresh or frozen shredded potatoes

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup favorite barbecue sauce

Canola oil, for frying

Directions

Special equipment:
a deep-fry thermometer
  1. Combine the flour, Parmesan, pepper, granulated garlic, granulated onion and chives in a bowl. Whisk the eggs with the sriracha in another bowl. Combine the two, then add the potatoes and mix well. Portion into 1-ounce balls and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Wrap tightly and transfer to the freezer to set overnight.
  2. While the tots are chilling, make Memphis Mayo by combining the mayonnaise and BBQ sauce in a bowl.
  3. Heat the canola oil in a deep pot over medium-low heat until it reaches 350 degrees F.
  4. Fry the tots, in small batches, until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  5. Enjoy hot, dipped in the Memphis Mayo.
