Mary Berry Potato Rosti 

Mary Berry Potato Rosti is a traditional potato dish made from grated potatoes that are pan-fried until crisp and golden.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 500 g potatoes (starchy variety preferred)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional additions:

  •  50 g grated cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley

Instructions

  • Prepare the potatoes – Peel and grate the potatoes using a box grater.
  • Remove excess moisture – Place grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  • Season the mixture – Transfer the potatoes to a bowl and season with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat the pan – Add butter and oil to a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
  • Shape the rosti – Press the grated potatoes into the pan, forming a flat, even layer.
  • Cook the first side – Fry for about 10–12 minutes until the bottom is golden and crisp.
  • Flip carefully – Place a plate over the pan, invert the rosti, then slide it back into the pan.
  • Cook the other side – Fry for another 8–10 minutes until fully cooked and crispy.
  • Serve hot – Transfer to a plate and cut into wedges.
