HAM AND SWISS ROSTI
Rösti is a traditional Swiss potato pancake typically served as a side dish but we added ham and cheese to transform it into an easy weeknight supper. Enjoy with steamed asparagus and chunky applesauce on the side.

Steps:
- Beat egg in a large bowl. Stir in ham, 1/2 cup cheese, shallot, rosemary, pepper and salt. Add frozen potatoes and stir to combine.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pat the potato mixture into an even round in the pan. Cover and cook until browned and crispy on the bottom, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Place a rimless baking sheet on top. Wearing oven mitts, grasp the pan and baking sheet together and carefully invert, unmolding the rösti onto the baking sheet. Wipe out any browned bits from the pan. Return it to the heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Slide the rösti back into the pan. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese, cover and cook the second side until crispy and browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Slide onto a platter, cut into wedges and serve.

HAM & SWISS ROSTI
This recipe was from EatingWell recipes. They wrote "Rosti is a traditional Swiss potato pancake typically served as a side dish but we added ham and cheese to transform it into an easy weeknight supper". I made a few changes to the original recipe (like using garlic instead of rosemary). It was very easy to make and delicious. We served this with a nice salad. My whole family liked it!

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter. Add ham and onions and saute until onions are tender. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine eggs, swiss cheese, garlic, salt and potatoes. Mix in ham and onions. Pour into large skillet on medium heat. Press mixture down firmly into pan. Cook for 12-15 minutes. Place a large plate over the skillet and turn over onto plate. Slide back into the skillet to cook the potato mixture on the other side. You will need to make sure there is enough oil in the pan to prevent sticking. Continue to cook for about another 10 minutes. Slide back on to the plate and cut into wedges. This comes out crispy and delicious!

HAM AND CHEESE RöSTI
From Eating Well magazine March/April 2007. This is a simple dinner. All you need to add is a vegetable and dinner is on the table in under a half hour. This would also work well for a nice and easy brunch.
