Rosti Can Be Gluten Free Food

RöSTI

Steps:

• Grate potatoes and squeeze out excess liquid.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium heat and add potatoes; shape into a disc.
• Cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes, adjusting heat as necessary.
• Slide cake onto a plate, cover with another plate and invert. Add more butter to the pan and slide cake back in.
• Continue cooking until browned all over, turning again if necessary.
• Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

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.

ROSTI (CAN BE GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Peel and grate potatoes. Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen tea-towel and gently squeeze them to remove any excess moisture from the potatoes.
• Place the potatoes into a mixing bowl and add all remaining ingredients. Mix well.
• Heat vegetable oil (or other oil of your choice) in a large pan or skillet over a medium to high heat.
• Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture in to the hot oil. Check one first and if the mixture does not hold shape -- blend in some extra flour to the remaining mixture.
• Cook approx 15 minutes, turning halfway through cooking. When cooked the rosti should be golden brown on both sides and cooked all the way through.

SALT-AND-VINEGAR RöSTI

Steps:

• Parboil potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water just until a paring knife slides into the center with some resistance, 15-20 minutes. Drain; transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and chill uncovered until cold, at least 30 minutes.
• Place racks in highest and lowest positions in oven; preheat to 425°F. Line two 8" cake pans with parchment; brush with 2 Tbsp. oil. Toss onions, vinegar, and 1 Tbsp. kosher salt in a large bowl. Let sit until onions are softened, 5-10 minutes (massage gently to speed up process).
• Meanwhile, grate parboiled potatoes on a box grater or in a food processor, or cut using a julienne slicer. Place prepared pans on lower rack and heat 5 minutes.
• Add potatoes to onion mixture and toss to combine; season with kosher salt and pepper. Divide potato mixture between hot pans and press down as firmly as possible to compact (a thin flexible spatula works well). Place on lower rack and bake until potatoes are very brown around the edges, 45-60 minutes. Remove rösti from oven; let cool slightly.
• Heat broiler. Broil rösti on upper rack until tops are golden brown all over. Cut around sides with a small knife or offset spatula to loosen and invert rösti onto a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Carefully remove parchment paper (if potatoes stick, let cool slightly). Brush top of rösti with more oil, sprinkle with sea salt, and broil until second side is deep golden brown.
• Do ahead
• Potatoes can be parboiled 1 day ahead; once cold, cover. rösti can be made 3 hours ahead; store uncovered at room temperature (or keep warm in a 250°F oven up to 1 hour). Reheat in a 300°F oven for 10 minutes before serving.
