Disneyland's Reuben Potato Tots, topped with Russian Dressing, Rye Toast Crumbles and Fresh Chopped Chives, are among our favorite specialty snacks at the theme park. We enjoyed them during one of many outings to the Festival of Holidays, a fun culinary event held annually at Disneyland's California Adventure park. Held each winter, the event is reminiscent of a European Christmas Market, complete with little food stands serving up all kinds of delicious treats.
Prepare the Russian dressing ingredients by mixing well by hand or in a blender. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Make the rye crumble. Preheat your oven to 300 F. Melt the butter, garlic and salt. Toss the bread cubes in the butter, coating well, and bake for 8 minutes on a baking sheet. Toss and bake an additional 5 minutes, or until crispy. Cool, and then pulse in the food processor until nice and crumbly.
Cook the Tater TotsThere are two ways to cook your potato tots: baking or frying.Baking Method: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the frozen potato tots in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through.Frying Method: Heat enough oil in a deep fryer or large pot to reach 375°F (190°C). Carefully add the potato tots in batches and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve: Place the tater tots on a serving platter, and top with corned beef and sauerkraut. Drizzle with Russian dressing, followed by the rye bread crumbs and chives.
