Steps:
- 1. Peel potatoes and then grate. Press potatoes between several thickness of paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- 2. Heat oil in large skillet over moderately high heat but not smoking, and sauté onion for 2 minutes. Add half of the grated potatoes, and spread to make a thin layer, and press down on potato layer with a spatula. Sprinkle onion and garlic over potatoes. Reduce heat to moderate and sprinkle the Gruyère over the potatoes. Spread remaining grated potatoes on top, pressing down again with spatula. Cook until golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes on each side. Season potatoes with salt and pepper.
- 3. Cut into individual portions, and serve hot.
RöSTI
Grated potatoes packed into a cake and fried in butter, this Swiss dish is a superb side dish to a medium-rare steak or even some fried eggs. You can peel the potatoes here, or save time and skip that step altogether. (Just make sure to use thin-skinned potatoes that have been scrubbed well.)

SWISS POTATO PANCAKE
This is the classic Swiss mountain dish called Rosti. The big potato pancake is cut into wedges and usually served with bratwurst, but I have also prepared this cheese potato dish as a meatless main course. We love the nutty flavor that the Gruyere cheese provides.-Sue A. Jurack
