Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Shred potatoes on the large holes of a box grater. Wrap potatoes in a clean kitchen towel; squeeze out liquid. Place in a medium bowl; toss with salt and pepper.
- Heat half the butter in a 9- or 10-inch ovenproof nonstick saute pan over medium-low heat. Spread potatoes in pan evenly; press down with a spatula to flatten cake. Cook until bottom is golden and turning crisp, about 18 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat. Invert cake onto a plate; slide back into pan. Return to heat, and spoon remaining butter around edges of pan. Cook until other side begins to get crisp, about 10 minutes, shaking pan several times to loosen.
- Transfer to oven until cooked through and tender in the center, about 12 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve.
POTATOES RöSTI
Potatoes Rösti or hash browns done well are potatoes perfected. I learned this from my husband's mother in Hungary, but you'll find similar versions that are the pride of many a mother and a young bride in homes all over Central Europe. In our home, few things raise bigger enthusiasm than the smell of rösti cooking when András walks through the door.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/gas 6.
- Cut the potatoes into thin matchsticks using a julienne attachment on a mandoline or food processor. Or, cut into thin rounds and use a sharp knife to cut the rounds into strips {more time consuming, but it works!}
- Heat the butter and olive oil in an 8-in/20-cm ovenproof cast-iron or non-stick frying pan, over medium heat. Add the rosemary to the potatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft and a few pieces are brown. At this point, the potatoes should have settled into a round flat pancake.
- Transfer the potatoes in the skillet to the hot oven to bake until the top and bottom are golden and crispy and the center is soft but cooked through, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and slide out of the pan onto paper towels/absorbent papers. Slide onto a baking sheet/tray and continue until the top and bottom are cooked to a deep golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Serve in wedges or whole on a plate in the middle of the table for breaking and nibbling.
RöSTI POTATOES WITH RACLETTE
Rösti potatoes with raclette cheese and melted leeks was one of my favorite dishes when I lived in France. The most famous raclette dish is one with melted raclette over boiled potatoes. Here, I bring you my take on that classic, with some refined enhancements.

Steps:
- Chop the herbs on a dry, clean cutting board, mix together in a small bowl and set aside. Heat a large, straight-sided skillet on high. Add the butter and swirl. Turn heat to medium and add the leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook the leeks are until very soft but not browned, about 10 minutes. Add the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Grate 2 of the potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Immediately place the potatoes in a clean towel and squeeze, twisting to extract as much liquid as possible. Repeat this step after the first layer has added to the pan.
- Heat a medium, nonstick skillet on high. Add the oil and when hot, add the potatoes. Press with a spatula to form a cake covering the bottom of the pan. Add the Raclette in one layer, allow it to melt, then add the leek mixture. Cover with the remaining grated potatoes and press with a spatula to form an enclosed potato cake stuffed with the leeks and cheese. When the bottom is browned and crispy, about 12 minutes. Flip, add more oil as necessary, and cook other side until golden and crisp, 10 minutes.
- Remove to a cutting board and cut into wedges to serve.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Potatoes: For the best results, use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. These varieties are firm and have a high starch content, which will help the rosti potatoes hold their shape.
- Grate the Potatoes Properly: Use the large holes of a box grater to grate the potatoes. Grating the potatoes too finely will make them more likely to fall apart.
- Squeeze Out Excess Moisture: After grating the potatoes, use a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth to squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This will help the rosti potatoes crisp up.
- Use a Non-Stick Skillet: A non-stick skillet is essential for making rosti potatoes. This will help prevent the potatoes from sticking to the pan and breaking apart.
- Cook the Rosti Potatoes Over Medium Heat: Cooking the rosti potatoes over medium heat will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Flip the Rosti Potatoes Carefully: When flipping the rosti potatoes, use a spatula that is large enough to support the entire potato cake. This will help prevent the rosti potatoes from breaking apart.
- Serve the Rosti Potatoes Immediately: Rosti potatoes are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are crispy and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Rosti potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect rosti potatoes every time. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both delicious and impressive, give rosti potatoes a try!
