Air Fryer Sweet Potato Tots
Description
Sweet potatoes are parboiled, mashed with some Cajun seasoning, and cooked in the air fryer for a lighter but still crunchy twist on potato tots.
Ingredients
•
2 sweet potatoes, peeled
•
1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
•
olive oil cooking spray
•
sea salt to taste
Directions
1
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add sweet potatoes. Boil until potatoes can be pierced with a fork but are still firm, about 15 minutes. Do not over-boil, or they will be messy to grate. Drain and let cool.
2
Grate sweet potatoes into a bowl using a box grater. Carefully mix in Cajun seasoning. Form mixture into tot-shaped cylinders.
3
Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray. Place tots in the basket in a single row without touching each other or the sides of the basket. Spray tots with olive oil spray and sprinkle with sea salt.
4
Heat air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and cook tots for 8 minutes. Turn, spray with more olive oil spray, and sprinkle with more sea salt. Cook for 8 minutes more.
