Patatopita is a famous national Greek dish, which is a pie made of thin crispy dough stuffed with rice and potatoes. The dish turns out to be very satisfying and tasty and retains its taste for more than one day.
It is necessary
- - 2 eggs
- - olive oil
- - 2 tbsp. wheat flour
- - 1 kg of potatoes
- - 1 tbsp. rice
- - 2 tbsp. fat milk
- - spices (pepper, salt, dried mint, nutmeg)
Instructions
Step 1
Beat one egg into a shallow bowl and beat with salt and 3 tbsp. tablespoons of olive oil. Add pre-sifted wheat flour and knead to an elastic dough. Roll it into a ball, cover with a cloth and let it "rest" for 15-20 minutes.
Step 2
Next, prepare the filling. To do this, peel and boil the potatoes, make mashed potatoes from them, be sure to add a little hot milk. Boil rice until half cooked (7-10 minutes) and combine it with cooked puree, add olive oil, nutmeg, mint, salt and season with pepper.
Step 3
Grease a round baking dish generously with olive oil. Roll out the dough into a large round layer and place it in the mold so that the edges hang down a little. Spread the filling evenly. Wrap the protruding edges of the dough inward, and brush the entire pie with a beaten egg and butter.
Step 4
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and bake the patatopita for 45 minutes.
