Ingredients

  • 400g maris piper potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 75g crème fraîche
  • 1 tsp creamed horseradish
  • 100g smoked salmon, we used M&S Collection Wild Alaskan Smoked Salmon
  • 10g chives, finely chopped

Method

  • Step 1

    Coarsely grate the potatoes (leaving the skin on). Place the grated potato in the middle of a clean tea towel, gather the sides and squeeze out as much liquid as possible over a sink. This is the key to a crisp rosti. Tip the dry potato into a bowl and season well with salt and pepper.

  • Step 2

    Place a large non-stick pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the potato mixture to the pan and press down firmly with the back of a spoon to flatten it into one large round.

  • Step 3

    Fry for 5-8 mins on each side, or until deeply golden, crisp and cooked through.

  • Step 4

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the crème fraîche and creamed horseradish. Season with a little salt and pepper.

  • Step 5

    To serve, transfer the rosti to a serving board. Top with the horseradish cream, followed by the smoked salmon. Scatter over the chives to finish, then cut into slices to serve.
