Ingredients
  • 300g/10.6oz Potatoes
  • 300g/10.6oz Ricotta

  1. Peel, wash and cook the potatoes whole in a pan of water until nearly cooked through but not completely.

  3. In a bowl mix with a hand whisk the ricotta, egg, salt and pepper.

  4. Add the parmesan cheese and mix everything until you get a sort of cream, then stir in the chopped ham, potatoes and olive oil.

  5. Open the pastry, leave it on its packaging baking paper and place in a round shallow dish.
