Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 large russet potatoes About 1 pound total.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional) Such as parsley or chives.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by peeling the russet potatoes and then grating them using a box grater. Squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes with the cheddar, mozzarella, feta, and Parmesan. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well.
Cooking
  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the potato-cheese mixture and flatten it into an even layer with a spatula. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
  2. Place a large plate over the skillet, invert the rösti onto the plate, then slide it back into the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until this side is golden brown.
Serving
  1. Once it’s crispy on both sides, slide it onto a cutting board and cut it into wedges. Sprinkle fresh herbs on top for that extra touch.

Notes

Feel free to mix up the cheeses. If you don’t have a box grater, you can chop the potatoes finely with a knife. You can prep the potato mixture ahead of time and keep it in the fridge.
