Name: Mob's Bacon Röstis
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 4
Cuisine: Swiss
Ingredients: 300g Dry Cured Unsmoked Back Bacon Rashers; 4 Spring Onions; 3 Large Maris Piper Potatoes; 4 Tbsp Greek Yoghurt; 4 Tsp Harissa Paste; Bunch of Parsley; Pepper; Olive Oil

Step 1.

Slice your bacon into small pieces. Drizzle olive oil into a frying pan on a medium heat. Add your bacon and sauté until golden brown and crispy. Slice 3 of your spring onions, leaving one for later, and add them to the pan. Stir until they have softened and add the contents of the pan to a separate bowl, keeping the oil in the pan for later.

Step 2.

Grate your potatoes. Once grated, squeeze out excess juices so they are nice and dry for frying.

Step 3.

Then, add potato to your bacon along with a grinding of pepper and mix together. Next, take a handful of the grated potato and form a potato patty. Repeat this until you have run out of the potato mixture.

Step 4.

Re-heat the oil you saved earlier. Once hot, add your rösti’s to the pan and fry until golden brown on either side.

Step 5.

Time to plate up! Add 2 rösti’s to your plate along with a dollop of yoghurt and a tsp of harissa paste. Chop up your remaining spring onion and parsley and sprinkle over the top. Repeat for your MOB and tuck in.
