Dear chefs,

[Patler]

Do you need a recipe for Rosti??

Basically, fried grated potatoes, no? One of the many variations we have in the US for "hash browns". I had good friends from Switzerland who ran a Swiss restaurant here in the US for a while. Their rosti was pretty simple.

Yeah but the consistancy is more like a pancake than hash browns. I find it quite difficult to pull off, actually.

Do you cook the potatoes before frying, or use raw? Shredded or riced?

Bioled in their jackets to keep in the starch and grated. Other than salt and pepper, it's only the starch that holds them together!

I'm thinking about making Grilled Cheese for lunch. any suggestion?

This sounds scrummie, though I'd probably add a slice of ham:

Ingredients

1 1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
2 slices whole wheat bread, or your favorite bread
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
2 slices Cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon chopped red onion
1/4 tomato, thinly sliced
Directions

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of bread. On the non buttered side of one slice, layer the feta cheese, Cheddar cheese, red onion and tomato. Top with the other slice of bread with the butter side out.
Fry the sandwich until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes per side. The second side always cooks faster.

That is so wrong.

2 slices wonderbread
1 slice processed cheese
1 teaspoon butter

Put butter on bread, unwrap cheese slice and fry the sandwich.

I'm just kidding! All that extra stuff on a grilled cheese sounds good but it changes it to something else. Melted cheese sandwich? I don't know, but in my mind, a grilled cheese is simply bread and cheddar cheese.

I don't know why, but franch toast in Germany is called "Armer Ritter", which translated means "Poor Knight".

Just cooked dinner. Heated some EVOO, cooked some onion, then dredged the fish in flour with salt and pepper, some red pepper and mushroom. Yum! Thanks for the flour tip guys.

Yeah, but did it get you laid like the end of the universe was about to happen? If not, you should have dusted of the excess flour!

There was a Packer victory. That part was a done deal. He did say how delicious it was several times.

Sure, but how did he like the fish?
