If you don't have cooked potatoes from the day before: Cook them and let them cool. It is important to use cold potatoes. You can also use raw potatoes. The cooking time will increase though. +2. Shred your potatoes with a grater. The shreds should be quite large so don't use your typical cheese shredder. +3. Dice the first onion and mix together with potatoes. You can also add diced bacon if you want to. Add your seasonings here. +4. Heat up some butter in a large pan. Add your mix to the pan on high heat. Let the mixture get warm for a few minutes under constant stirring. +5. Reduce heat to medium-high. Form the Rösti into a round puck. It should fill out the whole pan. I recommend a thickness of around 1 - 1.5cm (~1/2") for a softer Rösti. +6. Add some more butter flakes around the inside of the pan to get it under the Rösti. +7. It can take quite a while for a nice crust to form. Check after roughly 5-10 minutes for browning. +8. While the Rösti is cooking dice the other onion and the carrots. Steam everything in a pan with a bit of water. Use a lid to get the temperature up. +9. Alternatively you can use fresh or creamed spinach. +10. When you're satisfied with the browning, flip the Rösti and set the heat to medium-low. A plate can be useful here to put on top of the Rösti in the pan. +11. When the Rösti crispness is to your liking, remove from pan and fry two eggs. A runny yolk adds quite a bit to the potatoes. +12. Top Rösti with eggs and serve with the peas or spinach. + +## Contributors + +- **Alexander Bocken** -- [contact](mailto:alexander@bocken.org) +- **Elias Pahls** -- [contact](mailto:pahlse@pm.me) |
