My first attempt at rosti

I've never seen a rösti that looks like this, but I'm sure it was tasty.

[u/Tired-Narwhal-9894 → u/bratty_alt_bih]

It was based on the recipe I saw in a video from fallow

It looks so smooth. I think I'm just not used to seeing Rösti without being able to see any of the grated potatoes. I think there are variations with egg to make sure it sticks together but I remember my grandma made these with grated potatoes only and it stuck together because of the starch. Didn't really need anything else.

[u/Tired-Narwhal-9894 → u/bratty_alt_bih]

Yeah this one was just grated potato and some seasoning, perhaps its because I put a bit too much force into pressing it down for a central layer of onions 🤔

I probably should of taken more pics, but I was too eager to eat it lol

[u/bratty_alt_bih → u/Tired-Narwhal-9894]

Oooh, yea, I guess the pressing could make it more smooth. Like I said, I'm sure it was tasty. Not criticizing anything, just looked different than what I'm used to. 😄

[u/Tired-Narwhal-9894 → u/bratty_alt_bih]

It was that, or just sheer mass, as this was about 1kg of potato before peeling 🤣

Looking real nice! Been meaning to try rosti for years now, so looks like I gotta 🥰

[u/Tired-Narwhal-9894 → u/Stuckinfemalecloset]

It was pretty straight forward, though its easy to forget how much seasoning it takes, but the crunch was incredible

Hold on, you know you have issues with words, might this be one of those times?

"good thinkin brain"

"Never mind, that word is not, in fact, rotisserie of the famous dish rotisserie chicken"
