Grate potatoes into a large bowl. Finely mince garlic and ginger and add to
potatoes, mixing well. Place mixture
into a large Ziploc bag pressing the air out, and refrigerate overnight.
Place 2/3 cup of water in
a small pot. Put 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa in a sieve and rinse
thoroughly. Add to the water in pot
and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce
heat, and simmer for 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. Cool
slightly. May be done and refrigerated overnight. (Note: use 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa to
make 1 cup cooked.)
Place cherry jam, apple
butter and butter in saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil
stirring constantly. Reduce heat and
simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cool slightly before
serving. May be made in advance and
reheated before serving. Refrigerate unused portions.
Preheat oven to 350o. Place potato mixture into large bowl and
add quinoa, flour, salt and pepper, mixing well. Add eggs and mix until evenly moist.
Heat two non-stick
griddles over medium heat and brush lightly with oil. Using a ¼ cup
measure, ladle potato mixture onto griddles and flatten into 4-inch
circles. Cook about 3 minutes until
crisp and brown on one side, then carefully turn over and repeat on the
other side. Remove from griddles and
place in oven on a preheated rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for
about 10 minutes until cooked through.
Serve 3 roesti per plate
topped with ¼ cup of apple butter-cherry sauce and a small dollop of sour
cream on top. Sprinkle with chopped
parsley and marigold petals.
