Tuna, onion and potato rosti brunch.

The ultimate easy student brunch, as it is very very rare that I do not have a can of tuna in the cupboard and some onions and potatoes in the fridge.  Discovered this recipe the other day and made enough rosti for two meals - ate half and enjoyed it so much I couldn't resist eating the rest as well... I was stuffed, but happy nonetheless as I love this meal!


 1 large (or 2 smaller) baking potatoes
 1 tin of tuna
 1 large onion
 (optional) 1 egg to serve, although it's delicious without as well!

1)  Boil the potatoes, in their skins, for 10 minutes.
2)  Drain, and when cool enough to handle, peel.
3)  Slice onion finely and fry until golden.
4)  Grate potatoes and then combine with fried onions and tuna and mix well.
5)  Heat a tablespoon of oil in the frying pan, before pressing the mixture into it to cook for 5-10 minutes.
6)  Remove frying pan from the heat temporarily, place a plate on the top and flip the frying pan over so the rosti slides out onto the plate, before sliding it back into the frying pan so the other side is facing down to cook for a further 5 minutes.
7)  In a small seperate frying pan, fry your egg to your liking, then slice the rosti and dish up onto your plate, serve your fried egg on top and season, and enjoy!
