Ingredients

  • For the Apple Compote:
  • 2 peeled medium sweet potatoes (or 1 sweet potato and the same amount again of celeriac)
  • 1 medium yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Coconut oil, as needed
  • 2 peeled, sliced organic apples
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Juice of 1/4 lemon
  • 1 cup water

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Put the apple slices in a pan. Sprinkle over the cinnamon and add the lemon juice and water, then stir.
Bring to a boil then turn the heat down and simmer for 20 minutes or until the apples are tender. You can mash it if you wish, or leave the pieces whole.
While the apple compote is cooking, grate the sweet potatoes (and celeriac if using) using a box grater or food processor.
Sprinkle the salt over them and mix
Let them sit for 20 minutes so some of the excess moisture comes out.
Meanwhile grate the onion and give it a squeeze to remove excess juice.
Saute them in a little coconut oil in a skillet until crispy.
Squeeze as much moisture out of the sweet potatoes as you can, squeezing fistfuls at a time over the sink, then put them in a large bowl and add the onion, salt and pepper.
Melt some more coconut oil in the skillet and add a sixth of the rosti mixture to the skillet, using a wooden spoon to flatten it.
Repeat with the rest of the rosti mixture and cook the rosti for about 8 minutes or until golden brown.
Flip and cook for 5 minutes on the other side.
Top the rosti with the apple compote and serve
