ROSTI WITH CREME FRAICHE AND GRAVLAX
Rosti is the Swiss version of a potato pancake. We use our Mini Muffin Cup Rosti to put together these elegant appetizers, which are topped with crème fraiche and gravlax. You can substitute in sour cream and smoked salmon if you prefer. Add a pinch of caviar as well for a luxurious touch and a hit of salty flavour.
Yield: Makes 32.
