Instructions

Cook tater tots according to package instructions until golden and crispy; set aside.
-
In a skillet over medium heat, heat oil and brown ground beef. Season with salt and pepper; cook until fully browned. Drain excess fat if needed.
-
Cut cheese slices in half to create 8 pieces. Layer one piece over half of the cooked beef to melt slightly.

Assemble sliders by placing one tater tot on a tray, topping with a spoonful of beef and melted cheese, a dollop of ketchup and mustard, and half a gherkin.
-
Repeat for all sliders and serve warm.
Notes
Add diced onions or pickled jalapeños for extra flavor and heat.
Use cheddar or pepper jack cheese for sharper taste.
Drizzle ranch or barbecue sauce instead of ketchup and mustard.
Use toothpicks for easy handling.
Add lettuce or tomato slices for a classic slider feel.
Store leftovers refrigerated up to 2 days; reheat in oven or air fryer to keep crisp.
