Take tablespoons of the mix and shape them into ‘tots’, placing them onto the prepared baking tray as you go

Freezing and re-heating advice: Let the food cool fully, then place on a baking tray flat in the freezer for up to an hour. Then you can put them into an airtight container or freezer bags, this will stop them sticking together. They will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Remove as many from the freezer as you need and defrost fully at room temp or overnight in the fridge. Place the food back into a frying pan on a low heat, or on a baking tray in the oven at a low temp. Heat until piping hot throughout.
