The story behind this recipe
Hello,
The following recipe is among the quickest, tastiest, and most economical to make.
You cannot go wrong with it, so you can prepare it if you have guests or as an appetizer.
It’s good cold, warm, with sauces or salads, etc.... :)
Ingredients for 6 servings:
For the filling:
4 medium boiled potatoes
300 grams of mushrooms sautéed with garlic and salt OR mushrooms with sour cream cooked as usual.
100 ml heavy cream (this is in case you use sautéed mushrooms)
Whatever cheese you have around the house - I used a handful each of: caș, smoked scamorza, and parmesan (all diced, with the parmesan grated)
1 egg
2 tablespoons of pesto
half a chopped red onion
salt
hot pepper
on the side you can serve roasted pepper salad/or pickled peppers.
Pastry sheets (approx. 4-5 sheets)
Grate the potatoes, mix all the ingredients together, and place them on the pastry sheets laid out in a tray. Fold the edges nicely, sprinkle with parmesan and a little oil, and leave in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, until it has taken on color on top as well. You can bake for 25-30 minutes on the bottom rack, and 5 minutes with the heat from above.
Enjoy!
