}}

Rösti is made with [[potato]]es which are grated and, depending on the [[frying]] technique, possibly mixed with some [[butter]] or [[fat]], or fried in [[oil]] later. The grated [[potatoes]] are then shaped into rounds or patties, which come in different sizes usually measuring between 3-12 cm (1 to 5 inches) in diameter and 1-2 cm (0.5 inch) thick.

Often the Rösti is simply the same size and shape as the frying pan. They are most often [[shallow fried]] but can also be [[baked]] in the oven. Although the basic Rösti consists of nothing but [[potato]], a number of additional ingredients are sometimes added, such as [[bacon]], [[onions]], [[cheese]], [[apples]] or [[fresh herbs]].
It's important to use the right type of potatoes (waxy) to make this dish successfully.

{{RecipeMethod
| Scrub the [[potatoes]] and place in a saucepan with a pinch of [[salt]] and cover with boiling water
| Simmer, covered, for 8 minutes

| Cook one side on a baking tray for 15 minutes at the top of the oven, then turn the rosti over and cook the other side for a further 10 minutes (To turn over without damaging or breaking it, put a dinner plate which is larger than the frying pan upside down over the pan. holding the plate tightly to the pan, quickly invert both of them, onto the work top if necessary, then slide the rösti uncooked-side down into the frying pan)
