Ingredients
-
1/4 cup (60g) mascarpone
-
1/4 cup (60g) sour cream
-
2 tablespoons horseradish cream
-
1 1/2 tablespoons full-cream milk
-
3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
-
900g brushed potatoes, peeled
-
2 shallots, halved
-
45g butter, melted, divided
-
3 tablespoons canola oil, divided
-
1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
Method
-
1In a small bowl, mix mascarpone, sour cream, horseradish, milk and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
-
2Using large holes on a box grater, shred potatoes and shallots. Place potato mixture into centre of a kitchen towel. Gather corners of towel, and squeeze mixture in towel over the sink, extracting as much liquid as possible. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl. Drizzle 1½ tbs of butter into mixture and then mix in 1 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
-
3Heat a deep 25cm-diameter frying pan over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. When oil is hot, add half of potato mixture and, using a spatula, press down to evenly distribute mixture. After 30 secs, add remaining potato mixture and press down to form a cake. Cook for 8 mins or until potato mixture is crisp and deep golden brown on bottom. Place a large plate over pan and carefully invert rösti onto plate.
-
4Return pan to medium heat and add remaining butter. Slide rosti, browned side up, back into pan. Drizzle remaining 1 tbs of oil around edges of rösti. Cook for 8 mins or until rösti is crisp and deep golden brown on bottom and potato is tender in the centre.
-
5Slide rosti onto a stack of paper towels to drain. Place on a cutting board. Slice and serve with horseradish mascarpone cream. Sprinkle with chives.
