Corn and Potato Rosti
by Tarla Dalal
Rosti is a potato-based dish of swiss origin, where it used to be a common breakfast especially for farmers. Here, grated potatoes are mixed with cheese and a sprinkling of green chillies and cooked covered till a good aroma wafts out of the pan. Here is a more interesting version of rosti, with some sweet corn kernels mixed in. The texture and taste of sweet corn is in contrast to that of potato, creating a much-needed balance, which makes the corn and potato rosti more appealing than the plain version.

Par-boiled potatoes help to bind the potatoes while cooking the rosti and make it crispy.Combine the cheese with the potato and corn and mix well so that it does not spill when you turn the rosti upside down.
