Yield 20 tots

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 green plantains
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
4 slices mozzarella cheese
4 hot dogs, or other preferred sausage
oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Grate the green plantains into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add salt, pepper, and chili powder, and mix to combine.
  • Wrap one slice of cheese around a hot dog link and cut into fifths.
  • Take one tablespoon of your plantain mixture and encase one slice of the cheese-wrapped hot dog, shaping into a cylindrical "tot."
  • Repeat until all slices are covered and shaped, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze one hour.
  • In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat your oil to 375ºF (190ºC).
  • Drop four to five tots into the oil and fry until golden brown, about one to two minutes.
  • Place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
  • Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce!

These tots were amazing! They were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. I'll definitely be making them again.

These tots were a little too oily for my taste. I think I would have preferred to bake them instead of frying them.

These tots were a little bland for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more flavorful cheese filling.

These were so good! I used plantains that were a little too ripe and they turned out perfectly. The cheese filling was gooey and flavorful.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tots turned out a little dry. I think I might have overcooked them.
