Main ingredients
  • 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled
  • 1 teaspoon salt Adjust to taste
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter

Method
 

Preparation

  2. Grate the peeled potatoes using a box grater or food processor shredding disk.
  3. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
  4. Transfer the dried potato shreds to a bowl, add the salt and melted butter, and toss until evenly coated.
  5. Spread the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it down into an even layer.
Baking

  2. Let the rosti rest for 5 minutes, then cut or scoop and serve while hot and crispy.

Notes

Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes for a crispy texture. Adjust salt as desired and consider adding herbs or spices for extra flavor. These rosti can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees F until warmed through and crispy.
