Kumara Rosti product reviews

During my year as a vegan I ate alot of them! They were always in my burgers :) It is so hard to find ready made products when you are on a vegan diet, because lets face it, you are not always in the mood (or have time) to make things from scratch.

I think these along with the Hash Browns are my two favourite ways of having Kumera now, the added onion flavour just adds to it's appeal and it's way cool yumminess.

I will admit I wasn't sure what to expect when I first sampled these as I had never heard of 'Rosti's' before, but I gotta admit those Swiss sure knew what they were doing, but of course it took a Kiwi (or two or three...) to make it better

I have to agree with one of the previous reviewers that these are just the ideal size for both an apertiser or a side dish to a mains course, and they can go with just about anything at all.

Now if you will excuse me i'm off to the supermarket to get some more........

Holy Kumara Batman!
I love these things...
I have had them by themselves and they were fantastic, but my favourite by far is having them with my delicious Oven Fried Lemon Chicken!
To simulate how tasty it was, I suggest a light savoury lemon sauce, and a very heavy pouring hand
Rosti aren't normally my favourite way to have a root vege, but these are light and creamy, and well and truly worth it!

The Rosti's had a coating on them which kept the kumara moist but still stayed crunchy, making the whole meal tastier. The use of onion in the mixture was good because it changed the flavour enough, so that if you're not keen on kumara the flavour wasn't overwhelming. I had mine as a side dish but they would make a good party snack if you cut them up and served them with a selection of light sauces.

I have looked for these in a few supermarkets and given the advertised price I might be more inclined, personally, to wait until they are on a 'Managers special.' These are great served as either a side dish or a base for a vegetarian meal.

In all, a good stand alone snack or addition to your evening meal.

Once I opened the box, I was surprised at how small the Rosti were... I think I was expecting something bigger than a gingernut, but that didn't put me off them at all, if anything I think it increased their appeal, because I knew I probably wouldn't end up with half of one left on the plate...

After lightly frying them to a crispy finish, I arranged them on a plate, topped them with some Tuna Munchie Mix on top, with a slice of tomato as topping and a touch of pepper and salt for flavour... once cooled slightly, these turned out to make a great fingerfood snack to pass around as an appertiser leading up to dinner.

Overall, though I could see these making up part of a tasty main course, I personally would stick to using them as a side-dish, or as a starter. Get creative, that's what they are all about.
