This is part of a recipe where I didn't like the salad part. The rösti with a poached egg works really well.


Ingredients

500g floury ((iets) kruimig) potatoes
4 Tbsp vegetable oil
25g butter
salt and pepper

Method

  1. Peel and grate the potatoes on a coarse grater - food processor is easiest. Squeeze as much liquid as you can from the grated potatoes. Season them with salt and pepper
  2. Heat the oil in a wide frying pan. When hot add the butter and allow to foam. Add the grated potatoes and spread out to form an even layer. Turn the heat doen to low.
  3. Cook for 15 minutes (recipe) - 25 minutes on my cooker.
  4. When the bottom is nicely browned, place a lid or upturned plate on the rösti and quickly turn the whole pan to flip the rösti. Slide back into the pan to brown the other side - about 10 minutes - you can turn the heat up a little. If you flipped the rösti before it had browned quite enough you can flip again and finish off.
  5. Slide onto a plate and serve
