Rösti

This is a classic Swiss dish. We liked it quite a bit. I'm usually not good at this kind of thing, it it worked well.

I made a halfish recipe (a short 2# of potatoes probably), which fit nicely in my smaller cast iron skillet. Added the layer of sautéed onions as suggested in the note.

If you prepared the potatoes (parboiling, peeling, chilling) the night before, this would be a pretty good weeknight meal.

I added a poached egg to make a meal of it.
