Ham Swiss Rosti Recipes

HAM & SWISS ROSTI

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter. Add ham and onions and saute until onions are tender. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine eggs, swiss cheese, garlic, salt and potatoes. Mix in ham and onions. Pour into large skillet on medium heat. Press mixture down firmly into pan. Cook for 12-15 minutes. Place a large plate over the skillet and turn over onto plate. Slide back into the skillet to cook the potato mixture on the other side. You will need to make sure there is enough oil in the pan to prevent sticking. Continue to cook for about another 10 minutes. Slide back on to the plate and cut into wedges. This comes out crispy and delicious!
