5 Fast-Food Restaurants That Serve the Best Tater Tots
If you typically order the fries at SmashBurger, this is your sign to switch things up next time and ask for the tots instead. The fast food chain has made tots a staple on its menu, and they keep its classic recipe simple to focus on the tot trifecta: crispy exterior, fluffy inside, and lightly seasoned.
"As a chef, for me it's all about the perfect ratio and contrast between the fluffy, smooth and creamy interior, followed by a thin, crispy, and not stale golden exterior," says Chef Ryan Cunningham, co-founder of RollinGreens. He adds that light seasoning and a yummy, complementary dipping sauce can take your tater chow down to the next level.
