Ingredients

• 4 pieces Bratwurst sausages
• 2 cups Tater tots
• 4 pieces Hoagie rolls
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 medium Onion
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) for the tater tots.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, spread the tater tots evenly, and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the bratwurst sausages and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice each sausage in half lengthwise.

Step 4

While the sausages cook, thinly slice the onion. In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and a pinch of salt, cooking for 8-10 minutes until caramelized and golden brown. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Cut the hoagie rolls open and lightly toast them in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until warm and slightly crispy.

Step 6

Assemble the sandwiches: Spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the bottom of each hoagie roll. Place two bratwurst halves on top, then layer on 1/2 cup of crispy tater tots, a generous sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese, and a helping of caramelized onions.

Step 7

Optionally, return the assembled sandwiches to the oven for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy your Hot Brat and Tater Sandwich!
