Learn how to make this golden, crispy side dish that’s perfect for breakfast or as an accompaniment to any meal. Easy to prepare and packed with flavor, our Rosti recipe will be your new go-to for a satisfying potato treat.

Ingredients:

- 4 large potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold work well)

- 1 small onion (optional), finely chopped

- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter

- Salt and pepper, to taste

- Fresh herbs (optional), such as chives or parsley, finely chopped

Instructions:

1. Prep the Potatoes: Peel the potatoes and grate them using a coarse grater. For a less starchy result, soak the grated potatoes in cold water for about 10 minutes, then drain and pat them dry with a clean towel.

2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes with the chopped onion (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.

3. Preheat the Pan: Heat the vegetable oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

4. Cook the Rosti: Add the grated potato mixture to the skillet, pressing it down evenly to form a compact layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.

5. Flip the Rosti: Carefully flip the rosti using a large spatula or by sliding it onto a plate and then back into the pan. Cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

6. Serve: Transfer the rosti to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve hot.

Enjoy your Crispy Rosti as a delightful side dish for breakfast or any meal!
