I had this at my Swiss friend's house many times. I recreated it from a cookbook she gave me.

It's very Swiss to have this with Zürcher geschnetzeltes (veal and other ingredients in a cream and wine sauce),It's also delicious simply served with ketchup. You can make this with potatoes only, or with various additions mixed in. Recipe by flowergarden

Steps

1

These are the ingredients. It's really easy.
2

Boil the potatoes in their skins. If a bamboo skewer goes through one easily they are done. Peel them while they are still hot, and let cool.
3

Finely chop the onion, and dice the bacon.
4

Grate the potatoes with a special potato grater (which looks like a pizza cheese grater). If you don't have such a grater, finely chop half the potatoes and mash the rest.
5

Put some olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the onion until it is translucent. Add the bacon and sauté some more. Season with salt and pepper.
6

Mix the potato from Step 4 and the Step 5 ingredients. Season with salt and pepper.
7

Heat up the olive oil and butter together in a frying pan to melt the butter. Add the Step 6 mixture, form into a round pancake, and cook slowly over low heat.
8

To flip it over, hold a plate over the frying pan and invert the pancake on it, then slide it back into the pan. The one in the photo got messed up.
9

When it's golden brown on both sides, it's done.
