Everything about R Sti totally explained
Rösti is a
potato dish from
Switzerland. It was originally a common
breakfast eaten by farmers in the
canton of Bern, but today is eaten all over Switzerland. Many Swiss people consider rösti a national dish. Today it's more commonly served to accompany other dishes, rather than for breakfast.
The word rösti is pronounced in
Standard German -- and often spelled
Röschti in
Swiss German.
Rösti is made with potatoes which are grated and depending on the frying technique, possibly mixed with some butter or fat, or fried in oil later. The grated potatoes are then shaped into rounds or patties, which come in different sizes usually measuring between 3-12 cm (1 to 5 inches) in
diameter and 1-2 cm (0.5 inch) thick. Often the Rösti is simply shaped inside of the frying pan. They are most often shallow fried but can also be baked in the oven. Although the basic Rösti consists of nothing but potato, a number of additional ingredients are sometimes added, such as
bacon,
onions,
cheese,
apples or fresh
herbs. This is often considered to be a regional touch.
There are different views on what makes a perfect Rösti. The greatest difference of opinion is whether to use raw or boiled potatoes as the main ingredient. Also, the kind of potato which makes the best Rösti dish is widely disputed.
