Step by Step guide
Step 1
Break one egg into a bowl, beat with salt and 3 tablespoons of olive oil, then add flour and knead into an elastic dough. Roll it into a ball, cover with a napkin, and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
Step 2
Wash the potatoes, peel them, and boil until tender (about 20-40 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes), then drain the water.
Step 3
Rinse the rice, boil for 7-10 minutes, and drain in a colander.
Step 4
Heat the milk.
Step 5
Pour the hot milk over the potatoes and mash thoroughly into a puree. Add the rice, ¾ cup of olive oil, nutmeg, and mint, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6
Grease a round baking dish with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Step 7
Roll the dough into a large round sheet and place it in the dish so that the edges hang over slightly.
Step 8
Add the filling. Fold the overhanging edges of the dough inward.
Step 9
Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon of oil and brush the pie. Optionally, sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Step 10
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the patatopita for 30-40 minutes.
