Potato gems, also known as tater tots or potato puffs, are small, bite-sized potato snacks that are typically made from grated or finely chopped potatoes. They are seasoned with salt and other spices and then deep-fried until golden and crispy. Potato gems are a popular side dish or snack option that can be enjoyed on their own or served alongside burgers, sandwiches, or as a side with main dishes. They have a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior, making them a delightful treat for potato lovers.
