Crispy shredded cabbage and potato cakes topped with perfectly fried eggs. A hearty Jersey breakfast using November vegetables.
Place the grated potatoes in a clean tea towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, shredded cabbage, chopped onion, 1 beaten egg, and flour. Season generously with salt and pepper. Mix well.
Heat half the butter and half the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Place each portion in the pan and flatten into a round cake about 1.5cm thick.
Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Keep warm in a low oven.
Wipe the pan clean and heat the remaining butter and oil over medium-high heat.
Fry the 4 eggs to your liking.
Serve each rösti topped with a fried egg and season with extra salt and pepper.
Nutrition per serving (400g)
Squeezing out the liquid from the potatoes is crucial for crispy rösti.
Don't flip the rösti too early - let them develop a good crust first.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Jersey cream for extra indulgence.
These can be made smaller for appetizers or brunch bites.
