Tiny roast potatoes

[Titchdean]

Does anyone now where i can get tiny roast potatoes from or what the actual name for them are?... They are really tiny little squares of potatoes!! I've had them in a restaurant before but would like to know if theres anywhere i can buy them? I can find the bite size ones but not these and i would like them for a dinner party!?!... Any ideas please asap thanks :-)

Hi there Titchdean. I am not sure of the difference between 'tiny' and 'bite size' -but the ones I have are from Iceland and are the best of all supermarket brands (I've tried them all!). Think they are called crispy potato bites (so probably bite-size and not what you are after?!). Oven-baked in meat juices, they are lovely and am always complemented on them. Alternatively, Asda also sell them.

Hope that helps!

They are just roast potatoes but cut into dice !
Another fancy cheffie side dish .Just peel some spuds ,dice them small ,throw them in a baking tray ,season and glug some butter and olive oil over them .Give them a shake now and then and cook them for about 30 minutes or you can do the same thing in a pan on the hob.

I think they are called tater tots

I have seen them in the frozen potato/chip section in Safeways! Go have a look.
