Ingredients
  • 2 pounds beets, peeled and trimmed
  • 2 teaspoons coarsely chopped fresh rosemary
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • Non-Stick Spray

Directions
  1. Grate beets, either in a food processor or by hand.
  2. Begin preheating a large frying pan over medium heat.
  3. Toss the grated beets in a mixing bowl with the rosemary, salt and pepper.
  4. Add about half the flour; toss well, add the rest of the flour, then toss again.
  5. Scrape the beet mixture into the sprayed, hot skillet, and press it down with a spatula to form a round.
  6. The pancake should be gently sizzling.
  7. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes.
  8. Flip by sliding the roesti out onto a plate, top with another plate, and inverting.
  9. Continue to cook until the second side is browned, another 10 minutes or so.
  10. Cut into wedges and serve.
