Mini Potato Fritters Rösti
"These mini potato fritters are super easy to make and are incredibly delicious and crunchy! They make a great side dish or tasty snack. The only main ingredient required is grated potatoes! These fritters are inspired by the traditional Swiss Rösti, which is a big potato fritter, which is commonly served to accompany other traditional dishes. The main difference is in the size, Rösti is a big fritter made in a frying pan, and sometimes it can be messy to make and flip, so I decided to make small fritters to make it easier and quicker!"

Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
-
First grate your potatoes, I left the skin on to avoid waste but you can peel them if you prefer. Before adding them to a mixing bowl, remove excess water by squeezing them in your hands or using a cheesecloth. Add to a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper, mix to combine.
-
Heat up some olive oil on a pan or use a really good non-stick pan. Then take a big tbsp of the grated potato and place it in the pan, flattening it down with the back of the spoon. Repeat for the rest of the mixture.

Cook for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp, then drain on some kitchen paper.
