Rosti Muffins
I thought I would mess around with a muffin tin I had bought and try and cook something savoury. I thought it would be fab at doing cup cake sized potato rosti, so that’s what we did and they worked. So what to call them? I decided on rosti muffins and popped in the hashtag #rostimuffin into Instagram, to find out someone else had invented them before me!
We started with plain ones, but I thought they could be added to and so wanted to give them a BBQ twist.

Ingredients
For the potato mix
- 400g grated potato with the juice squeezed out.
- 60g melted butter
- 1 chicken Oxo cube
For the jalapeño muffins
- 5 or 6 slices of pickled jalapeño
- Rusty BBQ’s Al Pastor rub
- Spring onions to garnish
- Soured cream
For the pizza muffins
- Grated mozerella
- 2 baby plum tomatoes
- 1/2 small red onion, finely sliced
For the onion muffins
- 1/2 small onion, finely sliced
Method
For the potato mix
- Melt your butter.
- Place your grated potato into a bowl and sprinkle over your Oxo cube.
- Pour over your butter and mix together.
- Place 1/12 of the potato into each hole in your muffin tin (assuming you have 6 holes).
Adding your filling
- For the jalapeño ones I like to place a layer of the peppers onto the potato so it will be in the middle.
- For the pizza rosti muffins, I add a tiny bit of cheese.
- For the onion rosti muffins, add a little onion.
Add the top
- Now add 1/12 off the potato to each of the muffins to use up the potato.
- For the jalapeño muffins, sprinkle over some Al Pastor rub.
- For the Pizza muffins, add two halves of tomato, top with a little more cheese and some red onion.
- For the onion muffins, add a little more onion.
- Now set up your Egg to cook indirect, with your ConvEGGtor with the stainless grid on top. You’re looking for the Egg to be 200-220°C.
- Add your filled muffin tin and cook for 30 minutes. The muffins should be golden on top, and brown around the edges.
- Using a pallet knife, loosen them from the muffin tin. The butter should have stopped them from sticking.
- Serve on a plate and garnish.
