DIRECTIONS

Potato Tots: Combine first 7 ingredients in large bowl. Form mixture into 2 logs, each 1-1/8th inches in diameter. Wrap each in plastic wrap. Freeze at least 1 hour.

Combine 1/2 oz. potato starch and 1/2 oz. flour in bowl. Mix water with remaining starch and flour in separate large bowl until blended to form a batter. Combine bread crumbs and cracker crumbs in third bowl.

Cut frozen potato logs into 1-inch pieces. Coat in starch mixture, dip in batter, then coat in crumb mixture. Place on sheet pan. Fry in 350°F deep fryer 3 to 5 min. or until golden brown. Drain and set aside until ready to use.

Frittata: Heat 6-inch cast iron skillet on medium heat 5 min. Add oil, onions and peppers. Saute 2 min. or until onions are golden. Add garlic and cook 15 seconds. Add eggs, cheese, parsley, pepper and salt. Stir until eggs are very softly scrambled. Smooth top with spatula. Arrange 5 fried Potato Tots and broken RITZ on top.

Bake in 500°F standard oven 3 to 5 min. or until puffy and center is set.
