Ham And Cheese Rösti

1. 1

   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.

2. 2

   Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

3. 3

   When oil is hot (test with a drop of water; oil should sputter, but should not be smoking), pat potato mixture into an even round in the pan. Cover and cook until browned and crispy on the bottom, 5 to 7 minutes.

4. 4

   Remove pan from heat.

5. 5

   Place a rimless baking sheet on top. Wearing oven mitts, grasp the pan and baking sheet together and carefully invert, umolding the rosti onto the baking sheet.

6. 6

   Wipe out any browned bits from the skillet.

7. 7

   Return it to the heat and add the remaining oil. Slide rosti back into the pan, browned side up.

8. 8

   Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese, cover and cook the second side until crispy and browned, 4 to 6 minutes.

9. 9

   Slide onto a platter and let stand 5 minutes.

10. 10

    Cut into wedges and serve.
