Take small portion of grated potatoes and form a round shape and put it the pan (If you're making one large rosti, spread the entire potatoes in the pan evenly ) & cook in medium flame. Do the same for the remaining.

Cook on both side until crispy & golden brown in color. Serve it with Tomato Ketchup & Coffee.

If you find very difficult to hold the shape, add 1 tsp of corn flour in the potatoes and try it,it helps to hold the shape easily
Use butter generously for great taste.
