Ingredients |
2 rashers bacon, cut into small squares
3 floury potatoes
2 eggs
oil for frying
1 onion, thinly sliced
|
|
-
Fry the bacon until crisp. Set
aside on a plate.
-
Pop the thinly sliced onion
into the bacon fat. Put the lid on, so it can cook into
its own steam. Don't put the flame too high.
-
Coarsely grate three floury
potatoes. Get rid of the starchy water by putting the
grated potato in a tea towel and squeezing the water out
over a bowl.
-
Add the fried onion & bacon to
the grated potatoes and season.
-
Using the same frying pan, add
a little more oil.
-
Tip the mixture into the pan
and really press it down, so there are no gaps (Make sure
the potato is freshly grated, so the starch will keep it
all together). It will take a few minutes over medium
heat. Once the rösti is crisp and golden, turn it out, so
you can cook the other side, using a plate to turn it
over.
-
To finish, fry two eggs and
put on top. Serve immediately.
