Potato Crowns Recipes

POTATO CROWNS

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and cook them in salted water. Fry the onion in a frying pan in a drizzle of olive oil and then add the ground beef with salt and pepper. Cook until meat is cooked through.
• Line the inside of the bowls with plastic wrap. Mash the potatoes along with the corn starch, eggs, salt, and pepper. Spread 1 layer of mashed potatoes inside each bowl and then spread half of the ground beef inside. Sprinkle with mozzarella and cover with the remaining meat. Close the bowls with a layer of mashed potatoes and place them in the freezer for 2 hours.
• Fill the Ziplock bag with the remaining puree and cut 1 of the lower corners to make a piping bag. Unmold the bowls of mashed potatoes by turning them over and remove the cling film. Cover each dome with spikes of mashed potatoes formed using the "piping bag" and place in the freezer for 1 hour.
• Remove from the freezer, sprinkle with flour then fry. Drain and place on a baking sheet covered with baking paper. Bake for 15 minutes at 335 °F and enjoy!

COWBOY CASSEROLE WITH TATOR TOTS

Steps:

• Before I got ready to make this casserole, I let the Crispy Crowns sit on the counter to defrost for an hour or so. The original recipe used still frozen tater tots, but I felt they wouldn't cook as well if they were still frozen solid.
• In a large skillet cook the onion until tender and translucent. Add the chopped garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the beef and cook over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain the mixture and place into a large bowl and set aside.
• In a small bowl combine the soup, milk and sour cream. Whisk until smooth. Add to hamburger mixture and stir to combine. Add corn and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Gently mix to combine.
• Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer half of the Crispy Crowns on the bottom, pour the hamburger mixture over the top and then layer with the other half of the Crispy Crowns. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake at 350 for 25 - 30 minutes, or until golden brown and crunchy.
