Big Breakfast Rostis
Deb Perelman · The Smitten Kitchen
Just about everyone who makes breakfast has a version of breakfast potatoes, be they hash browns or home fries or röstis. And just about all cooks make them their very own way - the way they think potatoes should be - and though they may tolerate other breakfast-potato formats, they secretly always think that their personal method, the one they learned from their mama/that cafe/their friend the chef is the best. Personally, I just want to eat röstis all year round, and not just during the eight nights of Hanukkah, when we eat potato cakes like these called latkes. The rösti, at its base, is the ideal breakfast potato - humble russets and everyday onions, shredded, mixed with the slimmest amounts of egg and flour, and fried until brown and crisp on both sides. Röstis hold together better than hash browns, which allows you to make them bigger. And the bigger they are, the more ideal base they become for the other perfect breakfast, a fried egg.
