MOZZARELLA POTATO PIE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Peel and boil the potatoes in salted water for 25 minutes, until completely tender. Drain the potatoes and mash them. Add 1 oz of butter and 1/4 cup warm milk and mash until the potatoes are staying thick and firm. Season with pepper and salt to taste. I always add a pinch of nutmeg to my mashed potatoes; it's a Dutch thing. Spread the mashed potatoes in a pie plate or oven safe dish. Thinly slice the mozzarella and the peeled tomatoes. Place half the mozzarella on top of the mashed potatoes. Put the tomato slices on top of the mozzarella. Sprinkle the dried basil and oregano all over the tomatoes and cover the tomatoes with the remaining mozzarella. Top the casserole with the grated Parmesan cheese. The reason I kept my mashed potatoes firm is that during the cooking process the tomatoes as well as the mozzarella will release liquid that seeps into the mashed potatoes and adds flavor. If your potatoes are real fluffy to begin with, it might end up as something you can drink through a straw. Place the casserole or pie into a preheated oven and bake at 400F˚ (200C˚) for 25 to 30 minutes or until the cheese has turned a golden brown on top.

Mix in the melted butter and milk. Mix in the mozzarella, 3/4 cup of the Parmesan and pancetta. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and add in parsley. Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish. Stir the bread crumbs and remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan in a small bowl to blend. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture over the mashed potatoes.
