Potato and Sourdough Tots

These are easy, tasty and economical. They can be dressed up with dips or flavoured salt and reheated in Air Fryer or oven.

Ingredients
450 g peeled potato
1 egg
100g Sourdough Starter
1 Tablespoon of plain flour, plus more if needed.
1/2 teaspoon of Carb Soda
Handful of parsley and chives, chopped fine .
Salt, 1 teaspoon.
Pepper to taste
Rice bran oil for frying, about 1 cup

Process
Peel and cut potatoes to the size of a small egg. Place in TMX bowl and grate 2 seconds at speed 7.
Push out liquid through fine strainer.
Tip into bowl and add all ingredients except oil. Stir well.  There should be no liquid.
Heat oil in a deep saucepan to frying pan. Drop a little batter in.  If it fry’s and browns quickly it is ready.
Using a small ice cream scoop, about 3 cm in diameter or a teaspoon, drop batter into hot oil. Turn when brown on one side.
Remove and drain on kitchen paper

Should make about 30 Tots
Notes.
I made 1/2 plain as in recipe and then added 1 teaspoon of KFC powder to remaining mixture.
I dipped some of the plain ones in Mushroom salt and others in Sweet Chilli sauce.  I also sprinkled some with  Lime Leaf and salt mix.  The plain ones are a good base for many flavours.
