Start by peeling and chopping the medium potato and the two medium carrots into small, even cubes.

Steam the chopped potato and carrots for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Once the vegetables are cooked, transfer them to a mixing bowl while they're still warm. Use a potato masher to mash the potato and carrot mixture until it reaches a smooth consistency.

Add the shredded cheese into the warm vegetable mash and mix thoroughly until the cheese is fully integrated and melted slightly by the heat.

Allow the mixture to cool slightly for easier handling. Once cool enough to touch, shape the mixture into small cylindrical tots with your hands.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the shaped tots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them apart. Bake for 15-20 minutes, turning them halfway through.

Once golden and crispy on the outside, remove the Carrot Potato Tots from the oven and let them cool slightly.
