CRISPY POTATO ROSTI

Steps:

• Peel then grate the potatoes using a box grater, trying to get nice long strands if you can.
• Grab handfuls of potato and squeeze out excess liquid, then place in bowl. This helps make the potato crispier (otherwise all that water has to steam out in the pan).
• Add butter, salt and pepper then toss. Don't worry if your potatoes go brown/reddy - it's still safe to eat, and turns white again when cooked.
• Melt half the clarified butter in a 26cm / 10.5" (or thereabouts) non-stick pan or skillet over medium low heat. Shallow non-stick pan with sloped sides is best for easy rosti removal.
• Place the potato in pan, but do not pack down. Use rubber spatula to tidy the edges, then lightly pat down to even surface.
• Cook first side: Cook 12 minutes until underside is very golden and crispy, lifting edge with rubber spatula to check. If by 8 minutes it is not going golden, increase heat.
• TIP: Insurance policy - If you didn't use a non stick pan, slide the rubber spatular underneath all the way to the middle and run it around, to be 100% sure nothing is stuck before attempting flip.
• Flip: Cover pan with a round wooden board with a handle (or anything similar with a handle, Note 3). Holding the handle of the board, flip quickly - and with confidence!
• Cook second side: Melt remaining clarified butter in the pan, then slide the rosti back in and cook for 12 minutes until golden crispy, and there is no resistance when a knife is inserted into the middle.
• Slide onto cutting board, cut into 4 or 6 wedges and serve immediately!
• Use 25g / 1 1/2 tbsp clarified butter for each batch, medium heat in a non stick pan. Place potato in rounds in a skillet, around 8cm / 3" wide, 1.5 - 2cm / 2/3" thick (without patting down). Cook 5 minutes until deep golden and crispy, flip, and cook another 5 minutes until done.
• Transfer to rack set over tray in a 120°C/250°F oven until ready to serve.

POTATO ROESTI

Steps:

• Combine potatoes and onions in a tea towel. Squeeze as much liquid as possible from the mixture. In a large mixing bowl, combine this mixture with the oil and divide into four equal parts.
• In a 10-inch non-stick saute pan melt 1/2 a tablespoon of butter. Season one part of potato mixture with salt and pepper and spread into a thin layer in the pan. Brown for 5 to 7 minutes. Invert the roesti onto pan lid and remove pan from heat. Add additional 1/2 tablespoon of butter to the preheated pan. Slide roesti into pan raw side down and brown for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a rack and hold in a warm oven. Repeat previous steps for remaining potato mixture.

ROSTI

Steps:

• Place potatoes in large pot of cold water to cover and add 4 tablespoons of salt to pot. Slowly bring to a boil and then reduce the heat and simmer until tender. Drain and let cool. Refrigerate potatoes overnight.
• The following day, peel potatoes and grate into a bowl. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons of clarified butter in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the unsalted butter and melt. Add leeks and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add crumbled bacon and set aside.
• For the first Rosti:
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Add half of the remaining clarified butter and unsalted butter to a small or medium non-stick saute pan and heat over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 of the potatoes and 1/2 the leeks and spread evenly over the top. Cover evenly with 1/4 more of the potatoes. Brown the potatoes for about 5 minutes and then place a plate over the top. Flip the potatoes over, and slide them back into the pan. Brown for another 5 minutes. Sprinkle 1/2 of the Gruyere over the top and melt. Remove from the pan and place in the oven to keep warm.
• For the second Rosti:
• Add remaining clarified butter and unsalted butter to the saute pan. Repeat the process with the remaining potatoes, leeks, and Gruyere. Serve immediately.

RöSTI

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for about 30 minutes or until tender. Drain them and set aside to cool for about 10 minutes. Peel the potatoes, then refrigerate them until chilled, for at least 1 hour. Lastly, grate them using the large holes on a cheese grater; reserve on the side.
• Heat lard or butter and oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. When melted, add potatoes, sprinkle with salt, and mix well, coating the potatoes with fat. Then, gently press the potatoes using a spatula, molding them to fit the skillet. Cook, occasionally shaking, until edges are golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes.
• When one side is done, cover the skillet with a large plate and invert the rösti over onto it, then slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side of the fritter. Fry until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Lastly, transfer onto a cutting board, sprinkle with salt, and cut into wedges to serve.
