Potato rosti with smoked salmon

Potato rosti with smoked salmon is a delightful and comforting dish that combines the crispy texture of potatoes with the rich, savory flavor of smoked salmon. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as an elegant appetizer, this recipe is simple yet impressive. Let's get started!

Instructions:

1. Preparation
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
2. Grating and Draining
- Grate the potatoes using a coarse grater.
- Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This will help the rosti become crispy.
3. Mixing
- Transfer the grated potatoes to a large bowl.
- Add the egg, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
4. Cooking
- Heat the olive oil and butter together in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, take a handful of the potato mixture and press it gently between your hands to form a rough patty, then place it in the skillet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan.

5. Frying
- Fry the rostis for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully flip each rosti using a spatula and fry the other side for another 5-7 minutes.

6. Serving
- Once cooked, transfer the rostis to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the hot potato rostis topped with slices of smoked salmon. Optionally, you can garnish with a dollop of sour cream, dill, lemon wedges, or capers.
7. Enjoy!
- Enjoy your delicious Potato Rosti with Smoked Salmon immediately for the best taste and texture.

Tips:

- Use starchy potatoes such as Russet for a crispier rosti.

- Grate the potatoes just before cooking to prevent them from browning.

- Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes to ensure the rosti is crispy.

- Cook the rosti over medium heat to ensure even cooking and avoid burning.

- You can make smaller rosti if serving as an appetizer or larger ones for a more substantial meal.

- Garnish with fresh herbs like dill or chives for added flavor and presentation.

You've now crafted a delicious potato rosti topped with smoked salmon, a dish that's sure to impress your taste buds and guests alike. Enjoy your culinary creation and feel free to experiment with additional toppings or sides to suit your preferences.
