From: jtaylor@pietro.pichem.adelaide.edu.au (Jo Taylor) Date: 30 Sep 1993 17:39:13 +0930 This is in reply to a request which was posted earlier asking for a rosti recipe from the interlaken district of Switzerland. I'm not sure if this is what Michael was looking for but the recipe is easy, tastes great and is something different you can do with the humble old potato. Firstly, you will need about four medium to large potatoes (this is for four people). Peel them and boil them for ten minutes (the time may vary depending on the size of the potatoes, however the potatoes should remain hard. It's important not to boil them for too long.) Allow the potatoes to cool slightly then wrap in plastic wrap and refridgerate for at least one hour. Grate the potatoes (they should be quite sticky) add salt to taste then pat into a flat round and fry in butter for about 5-10 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown. Slice into wedges and serve. I find that if you make them into smaller individual patties they are easier to turn when cooking and look nicer when served.
