Step 1

1. Prep the crust: Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F). Place grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze firmly to remove excess moisture. Transfer to a bowl and mix with eggs, mozzarella, parsley, salt, pepper, and oregano.

2. Bake the base: Brush a 23 cm (9-inch) pie dish with 1 tbsp olive oil. Press potato mixture evenly into the dish, forming a 2 cm (1-inch) edge. Brush with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Bake 25 minutes until golden and crisp at the edges.

3. Cook the filling: While crust bakes, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté mushrooms for 5 minutes until lightly browned. Add garlic and green onion, cooking 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in spinach and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook 2–3 minutes until spinach wilts. Remove from heat.

4. Assemble & bake: Spread filling over pre-baked crust. Top with grated mozzarella, fior di latte chunks, and Parmesan. Return to oven for 15–20 minutes at 180°C (350°F) until cheese melts and bubbles. Optional: broil 1–2 minutes for extra browning.

Crispy Potato Pie - Step 3

Chef's Notes

For extra-crispy crust, press potatoes firmly into the dish and avoid overcrowding.

Pat spinach dry after cooking to prevent a soggy crust.

Use freshly grated cheeses for superior melt and flavor.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with a crisp arugula salad dressed with lemon or a bowl of tomato soup. Ideal for brunch buffets or family-style meals.
