Pizza (mine)
Ingredients: - 1 small yeast; - 2 potatoes; - 100 ml milk; - 2 eggs; - 2 tablespoons of oil; - a pinch of salt; - flour as needed; - ketchup; - 1 can of corn; - salami or ham; - cheese.
To prepare a delicious potato pie with savory filling, we start by boiling the potatoes. Choose medium-sized potatoes, wash them well under cold running water to remove impurities. Place them in a pot with salted water and let them boil over medium heat until they become soft, about 20-30 minutes. Check if they are cooked by inserting a fork into them; if it goes in easily, they are ready. After boiling, let them cool slightly, then grate them to obtain a fine puree.
In a small bowl, prepare the yeast. Take fresh or dry yeast, add it to lukewarm milk, and mix well until completely dissolved. It is essential that the milk is not too hot, as it could kill the yeast. Once the yeast is activated, pour the mixture over the grated potatoes. Now, add the beaten eggs, sunflower oil, salt, and start kneading the dough. It is important to add the flour gradually until the dough becomes homogeneous and easy to handle, but not too hard. The dough should be soft and elastic to allow the pie to be fluffy.
Once you have the desired dough, cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. This process will allow the dough to rise nicely, developing an airy texture. In the meantime, you can prepare the filling. Choose fresh ingredients: slices of salami or ham, sweet corn from a can or freshly boiled, and grated or sliced cheese, such as cheese.
After the dough has risen, dust a baking tray with flour to prevent sticking. Turn the dough onto the tray and spread it evenly with your hands, forming a base for the pie. Brush the dough with a thin layer of ketchup, which will add a savory flavor and keep the filling moist. Then, add the slices of salami or ham, followed by the sweet corn, and finally, generously sprinkle cheese on top.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and place the tray inside. Bake the pie for about 20 minutes or until the cheese turns golden and appetizing. Finally, take the pie out of the oven, let it cool slightly, then cut it into portions and enjoy it warm. This recipe is perfect for a quick lunch or a family dinner, being a dish that will bring smiles to the faces of your loved ones. Bon appétit!
