Method

  • step 1

    Put the grated potatoes and courgettes in a clean tea towel and squeeze out as much water as you can. Tip into a bowl with the spring onions, egg yolk, flour and plenty of seasoning. Mix well.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put a little oil and butter in a frying pan. Divide the mixture into 4 flat röstis and add to the pan (fry as many as you can fit in your pan at once). Cook over a medium heat for 6-8 mins until the underside is crisp and brown, then flip over and cook the other side. When they’re cooked, transfer to a baking parchment-lined tray and put in the oven.

  • step 3

    While the röstis are finishing off in the oven, fry the bacon in the pan, then transfer to the oven, too. Finally, fry the eggs to your liking, then serve with the courgette röstis, crisp bacon and a good blob of tomato ketchup or chutney.

Tasty but needs a little extra something. May add a pinch of salt and pepper and some fresh herbs next time. Making for two so halved quantities except for flour and didn't bother with egg as mixture didn't need it. Bound together well enough without.

Be careful to read the method correctly. I wrongly assumed that all the egg stated were to be used in the rosti when you only need to use one yolk. They still tasted nice despite the overload of egg. I will try again without the extra and I can imagine they will be even better!
