Ingredients
Scale
- 48 pieces frozen tater tots
- 1 spray olive oil
- to taste everything bagel seasoning
- 1 box (5 /150g) Boursin cheese
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Zest of 1/2 a lemon

- 3 – 4oz (100 – 120g) smoked salmon, sliced into strips
- to taste fresh chives, finely sliced

Instructions
- Heat your oven to 400°F (200°C fan) and lightly grease a mini muffin pan with olive oil spray. Arrange 2 frozen tater tots in each hole.
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 10 minutes, until softened but not crispy.
- Remove the pan from the oven and use the back of a teaspoon to press the tots into little cup shapes. Sprinkle the bottom of each cup with everything bagel seasoning.
- Put the mini muffin pan back into the oven for 15 minutes, until golden and crispy around the edges. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing.
- In a bowl, mix the Boursin cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, half the lemon zest, and black pepper until soft and fluffy.
- Transfer the mixture to a piping bag or spoon it into the hash brown cups.
- Top with smoked salmon, scatter with everything bagel seasoning, chives, remaining lemon zest, and a piece of pickled red onion or capers if using. Serve right away.
Notes
- Ensure the tater tots are arranged evenly in the muffin pan for consistent cooking.
- Optionally, use fresh dill instead of chives for a different flavor profile.
