POTATO ROSTI RECIPE | with cheese!

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil reduces saturated fat and adds flavor.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is a dairy-free option with a cheesy flavor.

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: smoked sausage

Turkey bacon is lower in fat while still providing a savory taste.

onion

🥗Healthier: green onions

💰Cheaper: leeks

Green onions add freshness and are often less expensive.

Grate the potatoes and rinse them under cold water until the water runs clear.

Drain the grated potatoes and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.

Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted and foamy.

Add the grated potatoes to the skillet, spreading them evenly.

Season with salt and black pepper, and press down gently with a spatula.

Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Carefully flip the rösti using a plate to assist, cooking the other side until golden, another 5-7 minutes.

If desired, add grated cheese and herbs on top during the last few minutes of cooking.

For a crispier texture, place in a preheated oven at 400°F until heated through, about 10 minutes.

Serve hot, optionally topped with sautéed onions or bacon.
