If you have attended one of my cooking classes, you will have heard of my husband because I speak of him often.. Why? because he is the reason I have to fix two dinners each night, and why I love my demarle cookware so much because it allows me to cook everything so quickly and the clean-up is so fast!!!

This evening my husband wanted to eat Meat Salad and Rosti Potatoes. He fixed the meat salad himself and was going to grate the potatoes to fix his rosti potatoes, when I offered to make them for him. If you have never made Rosti Potatoes, you should try them. There are quite yummy. They are very crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. They are usually made in a frying pan, but made in the deep flexipan, or in a metal cookie sheet, will be a much easier and healthier option.

Ingredients for 8 people:

• 1 package of frozen hash brown  of about ( 30 oz. ) to be found in the frozen aisle section
• 1 package of 6 cheese Italian cheese ( 8 oz. )
• 1 stick of butter melted completely ( in the microwave for 4 minutes)
• 2 tbsp of roasted garlic and chives spice from Demarle
• 1 medium size onion or two small ones diced thinly.
• 1/2 tsp of pepper
• 1 tsp of salt or more to taste

1. Turn the oven to 425.
2. To thaw out the frozen hasbrown, place them in the fridge the day prior to cooking the dish, or place the content of the package into the large round mold, cover the mold with the octogonal silpat and microwave it for 6 minutes. Set aside.
3. Cut the butter and place it into a small bowl. Cover the bowl with something so that it will not splash out.I am using my octogonal silpat😉
4. Pour the potatoes in a very large bowl, add the diced onion, salt, pepper, cheese, melted butter, the demarle spices and mix well.
5. Place the grande flexipan onto the large perforated sheet and empty the content of the bowl onto the flexipan. If you do not have this cookware, use a very large cookie sheet and spray it with olive oil. With a spatula, pat the potatoes down.
6. Place the pan into the oven on the top tier and cook the potatoes for 30minutes. They will be nicely crispy and brown on both sides:-)
7. Eat as a side to whatever you are fixing. At our house, it was Meat Salad ( only German can understand….), but I know you guys can come up with other sides;-) Yummy, simple, and cheap.

Bon Appetit and Happy Cooking!!!
