How to Make Roesti Potatoes

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled, and sauté for 4 minutes until softened.
Add 4 cups shredded hash browns (about 2 large potatoes) to the skillet. Gently press down firmly with a spatula to create an even layer.
Cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the Rösti using a large spatula. Press down again and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the other side is golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately and enjoy! Optional: Top with your favorite sour cream, chives, or cheese.
