Sweet potato rosti is a delightful and versatile dish that combines the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes with a crispy, golden exterior. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a side dish, this recipe is both simple and satisfying. With just a handful of ingredients, you can create a delicious rosti that is sure to impress your family and friends.
Instructions:
- Begin by peeling the sweet potatoes. Use a box grater to finely grate them into a large bowl.
- Add the lightly beaten egg to the grated sweet potatoes.
- Gradually sprinkle in the all-purpose white wheat flour. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into flat patties, roughly 3 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch thick.
- In a large skillet, combine the butter and olive oil. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to sizzle.
- Carefully place the sweet potato patties into the hot skillet. Avoid overcrowding the pan, cooking them in batches if necessary.
- Fry each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Use a spatula to gently press the patties down slightly as they cook, ensuring an even crispiness.
- Once cooked, transfer the rosti onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the sweet potato rosti hot, garnished with your favorite toppings like sour cream, chives, or a sprinkle of sea salt.
Tips:
- Grate the sweet potatoes using the large holes of a box grater for the best texture.
- Squeeze out any excess moisture from the grated sweet potatoes using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. This will help ensure your rosti is crispy.
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, you can add some finely chopped chili or a dash of cayenne pepper to the mixture.
- Use a non-stick frying pan to prevent the rosti from sticking and make flipping easier.
- Press the mixture firmly into the pan to help it hold together and achieve a nice, even crispness.
