Servings: 4

Ingredients

Potatoes
4 large, peeled and grated
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Butter
2 tablespoons
Salt
1 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/2 teaspoon
Fresh parsley
1/4 cup, chopped
Fresh thyme
1 tablespoon, chopped
Fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon, chopped
Sour cream or applesauce
for serving

Instructions

  1. Begin by peeling and grating the potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Transfer the grated potatoes to a clean kitchen towel and twist the towel to squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This crucial step will ensure your rosti achieves that coveted crispy texture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained grated potatoes with the chopped fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, rosemary), salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the potatoes.
  3. Heat the olive oil and butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling. This combination of fats adds flavor and helps in achieving a beautiful golden crust.
  4. Add the potato mixture to the pan, pressing it down firmly with a spatula to form an even layer. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
  5. Carefully flip the rosti over using a large plate or spatula, and cook for an additional 15 minutes, or until the other side is equally golden and crispy.
  6. Once cooked, slide the rosti onto a plate, cut into wedges, and serve hot. Enjoy it plain or with a generous dollop of sour cream or applesauce for an extra burst of flavor.
