PICKLED VEGETABLES
- ½ cup rice wine vinegar
- 1½ tablespoons sugar
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1½ courgettes
- 1 carrot
- 1 pack radishes
- ½ red onion
POTATO AND COURGETTE RÖSTI
- ½ red onion, finely diced
- 1 tablespoon rösti spice mix
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ courgette, grated
- 400g potatoes, peeled and grated
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons chopped basil leaves
POACHED EGGS
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 3 eggs
HUMMUS DIP
- 100g veggie hummus
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
TO SERVE
- 40g pumpkin and sunflower seeds
Steps
-
oven to 160°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
-
In a small pot bring rice wine vinegar, sugar and salt to the boil, then remove from heat. Peel courgette into long, thin ribbons; peel carrot then peel into ribbons; thinly slice radishes and onion. Add veggies to a medium bowl, pour vinegar mixture over, toss then set aside to cool and pickle.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frypan on medium-high heat and cook second measure of onion for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add rösti spice mix and cook a further 30 seconds then set aside. Bring a small pot of water with white vinegar to a simmer.
-
Whisk two eggs in a large bowl. Add flour, baking powder and salt and whisk until smooth. Place grated courgette and potato in a tea towel and squeeze out any excess moisture. Add all remaining rösti ingredients to bowl with batter, along with cooked onion, mix to combine and season.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan used to cook onion on medium heat. Use a ¼ cup measure to scoop out rösti batter and dollop into the pan, then gently spread out with a spoon until about 1cm-thick. Cook rösti for 2-3 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through. Transfer onto prepared tray and keep warm in oven while you cook the rest of the meal.
-
Crack remaining three eggs into pot of simmering water and cook for about 2 minutes (4 minutes for hard poached). Remove from pot using a slotted spoon (to drain excess water) and set aside. While eggs are poaching, combine hummus and mayonnaise together in a small bowl.
-
place a few rösti onto each plate and top with pickled vegetables. Place an egg on top and dollop a little hummus dip on the side. Sprinkle over pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
