Ingredients for the Filling
- 5 boiled potatoes
- 4 leeks, sliced
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 red bell peppers, sliced
- Salt
- Pepper
- Oregano
- Olive oil
Filling Preparation
- In a pot with salted water, boil the potatoes for 25–30 minutes until tender. Mash the potatoes in a large bowl using a potato masher.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion, bell peppers, and leeks until softened.
- Remove from heat, season with salt, pepper, and oregano, and mix the sautéed vegetables with the mashed potatoes.
Ingredients for the Dough
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 100 g olive oil
- 150 g water
Dough Preparation
- In a large bowl, add the flour and make a well in the center. Add the vinegar, salt, and olive oil.
- Mix with your hands to evenly distribute the oil through the flour.
- Gradually add the water and knead until you have a soft, non-sticky dough. If needed, add more flour or water to adjust the texture.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece on a floured surface to make thin sheets.
Assembly
- Grease a baking pan with olive oil and lay the first sheet of dough. Lightly brush with olive oil, then add a second sheet.
- Spread the potato and leek mixture evenly over the dough layers.
- Place the third sheet of dough on top, brush with olive oil, and add the final sheet.
- Lightly brush the top with olive oil.
Baking
- Preheat your oven to 170–180°C (340–355°F).
- Bake the pie for about 60 minutes, or until the top is golden and crisp. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
