Method
0 of 6 done- Peel the potato and grate it coarsely. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
- Thinly slice the leek and sauté it in a pan with 1 tbsp of butter until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Mix the grated potato with the sautéed leek in a bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper.
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add the potato and leek mixture, pressing it down to form a flat cake. Cook for 7-10 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- While the rosti is cooking, bring a small pot of water to a simmer. Poach the egg for 3-4 minutes until the white is set and the yolk is runny.
