Glazed Pumpkin and Rösti

Share

Rösti (meaning "roast" or "grill") is a traditional Swiss German dish of grated potato shaped into patties and panfried. I've flavored this rösti with Savoy cabbage and delicate seasonings and it goes wonderfully with the sweet and buttery glazed pumpkin. Serves two.
