Ingredients

• 2 organic eggs
• 250g low-fat quark
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 bunch of chives

Method

You’ll need: frying pan · chopping board · knife · grater

1. Peel the celeriac and grate it coarsely. Squeeze the gratings out well so the rösti brown better later.
2. Crack the eggs and mix them thoroughly with the celeriac. Season the mixture to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Finely snip the chives and stir them into the low-fat quark. Season the herb quark to taste with salt and pepper.
4. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Shape the celeriac mixture into small rösti and fry over a medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
5. Let the finished rösti rest briefly on a plate so they firm up a little.
6. Serve the celeriac rösti warm with the herb quark and top with a little extra fresh chives if you like.
