My wife likes to make something different for meal. Additionally to her own Russian recipes she use recipes from other countries. She found many interesting recipes in Italian Cuisine.

Here is one of them, Potato Pie.

In this potato pie mozzarella cheese and anchovies are used for added flavour.
It’s very similar to the potato "gateau", prepared in middle-class Neapolitan kitchens; this, however, is filled with mozzarella and ham.

Ingredients to make this meal:

- 2 lb (1 kg) baking potatoes;
– 1 can (1 lb / 500 g) peeled tomatoes, chopped salt;
– 1/4 can (2 oz /60 ml) extra virgin olive oil;
– Freshly ground pepper;
– 10 oz (315 g) mozzarella, sliced;
– 8 anchovy fillets in oil, chopped;
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano.

Preparation and cooking:

- Boil the potatoes in their skins in salted water.
– Place the tomatoes in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Allow to drain for 10-15 min to rid them of moisture.
– Peel the potatoes and force through a sieve. Mix in half the oil and salt and pepper.
– Oil the round pizza tray and spread the potato over it. Arrange the mozzarella slices on the potato layer and scatter anchovies on top.
– Preheat oven to 200 deg C. Arrange tomatoes over the potatoes, sprinkle with oregano and with rest of the oil.
– Bake for 20 min.

Serve hot sprinkled with chopped parsley.

Enjoy your meal!
