Potato-Capsicum Rösti
Pane-Bistecca
Potatoes and vegetables always go together! However, I also thought that the somewhat bland color of the potatoes needed to be given a little more color. So, I added a red capsicum to them and the result was this potato and capsicum rösti.
It’s not a traditional Swiss rösti, because I’ve added eggs to the mixture. Actually, you don’t need them, because the rösti is always wonderful with potatoes alone!
