Bacon & Spud Rosti

Ingredients

  • 1kg medium agria potatoes, scrubbed
  • salt
  • olive oil/ butter or ghee
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp chopped herbs
  • ½ lemon, zested
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 200g Hellers middle bacon
  • 6 - 8 vine tomatoes
  • 2 avocados, halved

  1. Tomatoes - Place the tomatoes on a small oven tray, drizzle with olive oil and season well with salt. Place in a 170 °C oven for about 30 - 40 minutes until cooked but still whole.

  2. Rosti - Meanwhile place the whole potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and cool enough to handle. Coarsely grate the potatoes on a box grater, or in a food processor. Season with salt. The mix will be quite sticky. Heat a fry pan on a medium heat and add a decent amount of oil or butter to cover the base. Place a portion of the potato mix into the hot fry pan and pat down into a circle. Cook until golden and then flip, patting the rosti down and encouraging a circle. When the other side is golden it’s done. Keep warm in a low oven. You can cook two medium or one large rosti or up to 8 small rosti, depending on the size of your fry pan.

  3. Herby sour cream - Mix all together and season to taste.

  4. To serve - Fry the <a href="/product/middle-bacon">bacon</a> in a grill fry pan, until cooked. Serve the rosti with the roast tomatoes, half an avocado each, the herby sour cream, and top with the hot bacon.

Manuka Smoked Middle Eye Bacon

The eye is selected from the Middle Loin and provides a leaner and smaller rasher of bacon. It is best cooked in a medium hot pan or under a hot grill and is an ideal size for homemade Eggs Benedict, or served as a whole rasher for a weekend brunch. Hellers Middle Bacon is cured and manuka smoked to give it that distinctive flavour and yet it’s great value and a real winner with the whole family.
