Instructions

  1. Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then soak them in enough boiling salted water to cover them well. Boil in the sparkling water for 10 minutes. Drain, quench and peel. Then grate on a grater with teardrop-shaped holes.
  2. Peel the onion and chop it very finely. Mix the potatoes with the onion and salt.
  3. Heat the oil and butter in a pan, add the potato mixture and use a spatula to make a cake. Fry until the underside is crispy brown. Then slide the hash browns onto a plate, turn them and fry the underside as well. Serve on a preheated platter or in a pan.
  4. Rösti are served with Zurich sliced meat, fine ragouts, lightly roasted meat or light roasts.
  5. Tip: You can mix more onions, herbs, diced ham or leftover roast with the potatoes. Then rösti, together with a mixed salad, is an independent dish that can be served both as lunch and as dinner.
