I have been reading about this event for a while now and since I am also a serious potato addict, it is about time that I send in an entry. I saw this lovely potato dish on Val's site : More than burnt toast, and was inspired to get cooking. I do not have much of a recipe. I made a simple potato rosti with just 2 big grated potatoes, salt and pepper and 1 egg. I sandwiched two rosti's together with some Blue cheese and served it with a caramelized pear.
This event happens on every third Wednesday of every month and is the brainchild of Cathy of Noble Pig and Krysta over at Evil Chef Mom and is called Potato Ho-Down Wednesday.
I made this same recipe as little finger bites the other night and it was gobbled up in no time! I hope you like it.

That definitely elevates the humble rosti to gourmet food!
Mmm, rosti. I am absolutely addicted to them and *love* the presentation with blue cheese and pear. Inspired!
That's interesting (I'd never heard of rosti) and it looks like a really sexy way to dress up the humble potato. This looks great!
rita - that's exactly what everyone did!!
sylvie - I'll have rosti with pretty much everything.
jeanne - I'm glad I could inspire a pro!!
mike - That's interesting that you have never heard of this....
It looks divine!
I would have gobbled this up in no time as well Nina. Roesti (Rosti) are my favourite way with potatoes I think. Thanks for the mention. I'm glad to have inspired this creative dish. I have also mentioned you in a post about a South African dish Sosaties...still to be posted..so watch for it soon:D

That looks so good! Pear and blue cheese is such a nice combo and combining them with some golden brown potatoes sounds great!
Kevin - I was amazed that even my children liked this and they do not normally like blue cheese.
