Ingredients
- 4 potatoes waxy, medium-sized, peeled, roughly grated
- 1 onion, brown, finely diced
- salt, ground sea
- black pepper, ground
- 2 tablespoons butter melted, optional
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chives fresh, chopped
- 1 onion, salad (red) small, thinly sliced
- 4 slices salmon, smoked
-
Pre-heat oven to 200 f (95 c). Once potatoes have been grated, squeeze out as much liquid as possible (using a clean tea towel). Place the potato in a bowl, add diced brown onion, sea salt, pepper and melted butter (if using).
-
In a non-stick pan, heat the oil over a medium-high heat. Place about a handful of grated potato mixture into the pan and flatten with the back of an egg flip. Depending on the size of your pan, place another handful or 2 into the pan. Do not over-crowd the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully flip and cook for a further 5 minutes. Remove the cooked rostis and place on a tray covered with absorbent paper to drain. Place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
-
To serve, place the cooked rostis on a warmed plate, top with your ingredients of choice or eat them plain.
