Potato Rosti Canapes

Potato rösti canapés are crispy, golden bites that make a seriously satisfying party snack. Each little round is pan-fried until crunchy on the outside and tender in the center, then topped with savory extras like sour cream, smoked salmon, or herbs. They’re the kind of appetizer that disappears fast, so maybe make a few extra.

Helpful Tips

• Try to squeeze out any excess water from the grated potatoes using a kitchen towel. This step is crucial for achieving a crispy texture in your rosti.
• Preheat the baking sheet before placing the potato rounds. This helps in achieving an immediate crispy sear on the bottom.
• They are best when warm, but are still really tasty once they’ve cooled down, so no need to stress over keeping them warm.
