Best Potato Rosti With A Smoked Salmon Rose Recipes

SMOKED SALMON POTATO ROSTI STACK

Steps:

• Microwave the potatoes (unpeeled, whole) for 1 1/2 minutes on high, turn then microwave for a further 2 minutes. Or boil the potatoes for 5 minutes. The potatoes should be uncooked in the middle.
• Use a dishcloth to hold the potatoes and peel the skin off. I find it easiest to do this with a butter knife.
• Use a cheese grater and grate the potato.
• Add butter, salt and pepper and mix to combine.
• Heat olive oil in a large fry pan over medium high heat.
• Scoop up 1/4 cup of potato mixture and use an egg flip to lightly pack the potato into the measuring cup. Then place into the pan and lightly pat down with an egg flip to make the rosti about 1 cm / 1/3" thick. Repeat with remaining mixture.
• Cook until each side is golden brown - around 1 1/2 - 2 minutes for each side.
• Remove from fry pan.
• To serve, stack 3 rostis on each plate, top with smoked salmon, a dollop of sour cream and dill.

SWISS ROSTI WITH SMOKED SALMON AND POACHED EGG

Steps:

• Using the large holes of a box grater, shred the parboiled potatoes onto a baking sheet. (Try not to mash them.) Season with salt and pepper.
• Place a 9-inch cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons butter. When butter is hot, use a spatula to transfer all the grated potatoes to the skillet. Let the potatoes begin to brown, then turn heat to medium. Press down lightly with spatula to form a thick cake. Let cake fry gently until bottom is golden brown and crisp, about 10 to 15 minutes. Shake the pan to be sure the cake isn't sticking; loosen with a spatula if necessary.
• Lay a plate over the uncooked side of the cake and carefully invert the cake onto the plate, crisp-side up. Return the skillet to the stove, add a little more butter to the pan as necessary and slip the cake back in, uncooked-side down.
• Fry gently for another 10 to 15 minutes, until crisp on the second side. Remove from heat and slide the cake (or invert) onto a plate or cutting board. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Poach the eggs: Fill a wide skillet halfway with water. Add a good pinch of salt and bring to a gentle simmer. Break each egg into a teacup, then carefully slip it beneath the water's surface. Cook for 2 minutes, until eggs are barely set, then turn off heat. (Leave eggs in hot water to finish cooking as you prepare the plates.)
• Cut the rösti into wedges and divide among plates. Drape a slice of smoked salmon next to each wedge. Remove eggs one by one with a slotted spoon (holding a towel beneath spoon to catch excess water), and place on the other side of each wedge.
• Top each wedge with a dollop of crème fraîche. Garnish with a sprinkle of chives and a sprig of watercress.

POTATO AND SMOKED SALMON KUGEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brush an 8 by12 lasagna dish with 2 tablespoons of chicken fat. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of chicken fat and onions, and saute for 2 minutes, or until translucent. Let onions cool.
• In a large bowl, mix potatoes, cooked onions, and dill together with remaining chicken fat and season with salt. Place mixture in lasagna dish and bake in the oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until potatoes are tender in the center and crisp on top.
• Remove from pan and layer top with smoked salmon. Cut into 10 equal size portions and serve.

BEETROOT ROSTI WITH GREEN YOGURT & SMOKED SALMON

Steps:

• Toss the beetroot and potato with a large pinch of salt, tip into a colander in the sink, and leave to drain for 30 mins. Transfer to a clean tea towel and squeeze out any excess liquid. Heat half the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion for 5 mins. Add the grated veg and fry for 10 mins more until just soft. Remove from the heat. Cool slightly. Combine with 1 egg and the flour, season and form into eight patties.
• For the herb yogurt, tip everything into a food processor with a pinch of sea salt, and blitz until smooth.
• Heat the butter and remaining oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, and fry the rosti for 4-5 mins on each side until crisp and cooked through. Put on a baking tray and keep warm in a low oven.
• Bring a pan of lightly salted water to a simmer with the vinegar. Stir to create a whirlpool. Crack 1 egg into a cup, wait until the whirlpool has almost subsided, then tip in the egg. Poach for 2-3 mins, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. Repeat with the other eggs.
• Serve the rosti with the herb yogurt, poached eggs, smoked salmon and some extra dill.
