Rosti Food

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

Steps:

• Wash potatoes and leave skin on. In a large food processor, fitted with the shredding disk, shred the potatoes. Over a sink or bowl squeeze the water out of the shredded potatoes, making sure to get as much liquid out as possible.
• Transfer to a large bowl, add chives, salt, pepper, eggs and flour. Mix well. In a small nonstick skillet heat 1 tablespoon of butter and oil over moderate heat until foam subsides. Add potato mixture to the skillet. Flatten to make an even layer. Cook the potato cake over moderate heat, turning once and adding another tablespoon of butter. Cook until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel.

CHEESE ROSTI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, and let cool. Once cool, peel and grate potatoes.
• Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in large nonstick skillet, add a layer of potatoes and a layer of cheese, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat layers. Dot each layer with remaining butter. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons hot water over the top layer, cover and saute at low to medium heat until bottom layer browns. Turn with spatula and brown again.

ROSTI POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Shred potatoes on the large holes of a box grater. Wrap potatoes in a clean kitchen towel; squeeze out liquid. Place in a medium bowl; toss with salt and pepper.
• Heat half the butter in a 9- or 10-inch ovenproof nonstick saute pan over medium-low heat. Spread potatoes in pan evenly; press down with a spatula to flatten cake. Cook until bottom is golden and turning crisp, about 18 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat. Invert cake onto a plate; slide back into pan. Return to heat, and spoon remaining butter around edges of pan. Cook until other side begins to get crisp, about 10 minutes, shaking pan several times to loosen.
• Transfer to oven until cooked through and tender in the center, about 12 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve.

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.

ROESTI

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes until tender enough to pierce with a fork, about 15 minutes; drain and refrigerate potatoes overnight.
• Peel and grate the potatoes into a large bowl.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat; add the grated potatoes; season with salt. Press the potatoes into a round loaf using a spatula. Sprinkle the milk over them. Cover the skillet with a lid. When you hear the potatoes begin to sizzle in about 5 to 10 minutes, reduce the heat to low. Cook until a brown crust has formed on the bottom, about 30 minutes. Cover the skillet with a large plate and flip the roesti onto the plate to serve.

RöSTI (ROESTI)

Steps:

• Peel the cooked potatoes and grate them through a coarse grater.
• Slice the onions into thin wedges.
• Melt the butter in a non-stick frying pan and add the onions and sweat them until they look glassy and transparent.
• Add the grated potatoes and the salt and stir through.
• Fry while stirring them around in the pan for about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Press together to form a flat cake and fry over medium heat until there is a golden crust on the bottom.
• Place a serving platter on the pan and turn the pan upside down, so the Roesti falls on the platter with the crust on top.
• 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.

RöSTI

Steps:

• In a large saucepan cover potatoes with salted water by 2 inches and simmer until tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Drain potatoes in a colander and cool. Chill potatoes, covered, at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
• Peel potatoes. Set a four-sided grater in a large bowl and coarsely shred potatoes into bowl. Season potatoes with salt and pepper, tossing mixture with a fork.
• In a 9- to 9 1/2-inch nonstick skillet heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1/2 tablespoon oil over moderate heat until foam subsides. Add potatoes, spreading them evenly and tamping them down with a rubber spatula to form an even cake. Reduce heat to moderately low and cook rösti until underside is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Slide rösti onto a large plate. Invert another large plate over rösti and invert rösti onto it. (Browned side of rösti should be on top.) In skillet heat remaining tablespoon butter and 1/2 tablespoon oil over moderately low heat until foam subsides. Slide rösti back into skillet, browned side up, and cook until underside is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Slide rösti onto a serving plate and cut into wedges.
