Potato Nuggets come under different names such as Potato Gems, Potato Royals, Tator Tots, Potato Rounds, Potato Puffs among others, but are all essentially the same thing.  This recipe is based on the McCain Frozen Potato Nuggets but the time and temperature should be similar for other varieties as well.
