tots

I love this combo of chipotle cheddar mixed with pumpkin. It's a little different than the traditional sage or cinnamon that you get when roasting pumpkin. Not that I don't love those flavors, because I definitely do, but this combo is really different and works great.

Roasted Pumpkin Chipotle Cheddar Tots

pie pumpkin

salt + pepper

butter

in chipotle chile peppers adobo (minced)

chili powder

smoked paprika

brown sugar

flour

salt

pepper

cheddar cheese

bag sweet potato chips (finely crushed, 6-7)

avocado

greek yogurt

parsley (chopped)

dill

onion powder

garlic (minced)

worcestershire sauce

vinegar

salt and pepper

blue cheese crumbles

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Cut the pumpkin in half. With a spoon scrape out the seeds and pulp from the center. Place all the seeds into a bowl (you can roast them later). Place pumpkin on a baking sheet (face up or face down) and roast for 45 minutes, or until pumpkin is fork-tender. They should be nice and light golden brown when done. Allow to cool 10 minutes and then peel off the skin from the pumpkin and place the pumpkin flesh in a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer. Add the butter to the bowl with the pumpkin and mash the pumpkin well with a fork or use your mixer to mash the pumpkin. Add the chipotle chile pepper, chili powder, smoked paprika, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Mix well and then stir in the flour and egg. Mix well, until combined. Fold in the cheddar cheese.

Grease a baking sheet with olive oil and place the sweet potato chip crumbs in a shallow bowl (I recommend pulsing the chips in your food processor if you want very fine crumbs - like bread crumbs, but you can also just stomp on the chip bag with your feet, the turn the bag over and repeat). Scoop about 1 heaping teaspoon of the pumpkin mixture onto a spoon and then use your finger to push the mixture of the spoon into the chip crumbs. The pumpkin mixture will be wet, but this is fine. Roll the pumpkin mixture in the chips and coat well. Shape into a small ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all of the pumpkin mixture is gone. Spray the tots with cooking spray. Bake for 15 minutes and carefully flip the the tots over and bake another 10-15 minutes or until golden and crisp.

To make the avocado blue cheese ranch, combine all ingredients except the blue cheese in a food processor and blend until creamy, scraping down the sides occasionally when needed. Taste and season additionally if desired. Then fold in the blue cheese. The avocado ranch can be stored in a seal-tight container for 1-2 days.

Heidi Billotto’s Baked Sweetpotato Tots

1-3 sweetpotatoes

local eggs

panko crumbs

OuterBanks SeaSalt and Heidi’s Hot Pepper Blend

Shred the potatoes by hand or in a food processor with the shredded blade. The latter takes about 2 seconds to complete the task, so if you want to make short work of things, put that box grater away for another day. You can keep the skins on the potatoes, to make even shorter work of it all.

Combine the shredded potatoes with the eggs and panko crumbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Once you’ve combined all of the ingredients, you need to blend them just a little more. Back to the food processor, this time fitted with the steel blade. Use a couple of quick on/off pulses to get it all blended and chopped up just a bit more. This blending will make the mix easy to shape.

Shape the mix with your hands into bite-sized “tots”. Place them side by side on a parchment paper covered baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Once the baked tots are cooled, they freeze beautifully. Freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once they are completely frozen, transfer to a plastic freezer bag. To reheat, place frozen tots on a baking sheet at 325 for about 30 minutes.
