Ingredients

  • 2 St. Galler Bratwurst
  • 500g waxy potatoes (boiled the day before, peeled)
  • 40g butter
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp oil

Steps

1

Coarsely grate the pre-boiled potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

2

Heat butter and oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Spread the grated potatoes evenly and press down gently into a flat cake.

3

Cook for 10-12 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy. Flip carefully (use a plate if needed) and cook the other side for another 8-10 minutes.

4

Meanwhile, grill the Bratwurst in a separate pan over medium heat for 10-12 minutes until golden all around.

5

Slide the Rösti onto a plate, place the Bratwurst on top. Serve immediately.

Tips

The secret to great Rösti is using potatoes cooked the day before — they lose moisture overnight and get crispier. Don't stir the Rösti while cooking, let the crust form undisturbed.
