Ingredients
- Potatoes 4 pcs
- Butter 60 g
- Olive oil 2 tbsp
- Salt 0.5 tsp
- Cream cheese 280 g
- Smoked salmon 200 g
- Lemon 1 pcs
- Green onion 2 stalk
- Dill 4 sprig
Directions
Step 1
Wash and peel the potatoes. Rinse the green onion and dill. Prepare a grater, bowls, and a deep, thick-bottomed skillet.
Step 2
Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt it in 2–3 intervals of 20–30 seconds and let it cool slightly. Coarsely grate the potatoes into the bowl and squeeze out excess moisture. Pour in the melted butter and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add salt and black pepper, and mix everything well.
Step 3
Pour 1 tbsp of olive oil into the skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the potato mixture and spread it with a spatula into a large, thick pancake.
Step 4
Fry the potato pancake, pressing it lightly with a spatula, for 10–12 minutes until a caramel-golden crust forms and the edges are dry and crispy. Flip and fry the other side for another 10–12 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Step 5
Separate the dill fronds from the stems, finely chop them along with the green onion. Finely grate the lemon zest.
Step 6
Transfer the fried rösti to a flat serving plate. Spread it evenly with cream cheese.
Step 7
Arrange the smoked salmon slices on top. Sprinkle the rösti with lemon zest, chopped onion, and dill.
