Swiss Fried Potatoes (R?sti)
4 medium potatoes
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup diced Gruy?re or Swiss cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons water
Heat 1 inch salted water to boiling. Add potatoes. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and cook until tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Peel and shred potatoes or cut into 1/4-inch strips. Heat butter in skillet until melted. Add potatoes, onion and cheese. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook uncovered over medium heat, turning frequently, until potatoes start to brown, about 10 minutes, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons butter to prevent sticking if necessary.
Press potatoes with spatula to form a flat cake; sprinkle with water. Cover and cook over low heat, without stirring, until bottom is golden brown and crusty, about 10 minutes. Place inverted platter over skillet; invert potatoes onto platter.
Yields 4 to 6 servings.
