First start with either defrosted tater tots or defrost them in the microwave on a microwave-safe plate, for 5 minutes.

In a cast iron pan or frying pan heat the pan with the oil on medium heat. After about 5 minutes add the defrosted tater tots or the shredded potatoes, in a single layer, into the large skillet. Push down on the tater tots to make them flat. This allows more area to be fried and get golden brown.

Fry on the first side for 5 minutes and then flip to the other side and fry for another 5 minutes in an even layer. Add in the sausage if using at this point.

While the tater tots or shredded potatoes are frying crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk and whisk with a fork until well combined.

Once the tater tots or shredded potatoes are done frying, they should be a nice golden brown, push them to one side of the pan.

Add the egg mixture and let cook a little before, with a flat ended spoon, moving the egg mixture around until fully cooked to scramble the eggs. Add in the potatoes/sausage back into the rest of the pan with the egg mixture.

Fry for a couple of minutes, adding in the seasoning and then sprinkle with cheese. Adding the seasoning at the end gives the best flavor. Turn off the heat and let sit until it has melty cheese on top and serve! Enjoy!

Serve either in a warm tortilla or you can also just eat it as is with sourdough toast or English muffins.
