- Season the potatoes liberally with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the rösti.

- Flip the rösti carefully once during cooking. This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Serve the rösti immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, applesauce, and fried eggs.
