This will ensure that the interior of the tots is soft and easy to chew, while the exterior gets a little crunchy. I like to use rice instead of potatoes since it\u2019s a little easier to work with and it\u2019s such a good use for leftover rice.<\/p>\n<p>A short grain rice works best here, but you can use brown or white rice, depending on what you have and your preference.
