- Why did my rosti turn out soft and oily?
- You likely didn't squeeze enough water out of the potatoes, or the oil wasn't hot enough. Steam softens the inside, while cool oil gets absorbed into the potato.
- Can I prep the rosti ahead of time?
- Yes, you can fry them in advance and crisp them up in an oven or air fryer just before serving.

Instructions
Peel the potatoes and grate them using the large holes of a box grater. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes.
Wrap the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and wring them out as hard as you can. The goal is to get them as dry as possible.
Mix the dried potatoes with the egg, flour, and pepper. Form into 4 flat patties.
Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet and fry the potato patties over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Season the beef patties with salt and pepper and sear in a hot skillet for 3-4 minutes per side.
Toast the buns and slice the tomato and onion.
Assemble: Bun, lettuce, meat, crispy rosti, tomato, onion. Serve immediately.
