Pan-fried Potato Cake with Bellafesta Light Clai Salami is super easy to make and perfect in any season, even in summer when you don’t turn on the oven, this comes in handy. It’s made easily with very few ingredients. To prepare this savory cake, I used Bellafesta light Clai salami, which has 50% less fat than traditional Milano salami. It is made using only the finest lean meats of Italian pork. The particular curing process reduces the fat percentage (15% max) while maintaining a flavor that matches that of traditional salamis. The Bella Festa mixture contains iodized salt, has high protein content, and is gluten-free and milk-free. You can find Clai products in Clai stores and their retailers, and you can also find them on Amazon. At this link, you can buy the Bellafesta Light Claii

Preparation
Let’s start preparing the Pan-fried Potato Cake with Bellafesta Light Clai Salami. Slice the smoked provolone thinly, wash and peel the potatoes, steam them, or boil them without peeling. Once the potatoes are cooked, mash them with a potato masher without waiting for them to cool. Add the flour, Parmigiano, egg, pepper, and adjust salt. Mix well to get a homogeneous mixture.
Heat a non-stick pan and grease it with extra virgin olive oil. Divide the potato mixture into two parts, and when the pan is hot, put one part of the mixture in the pan and press it with your hands to cover the entire pan. Spread the smoked provolone and Bellafesta Clai salami over the mixture, keeping the edges clear. Cover with the remaining mixture, sealing the edges to prevent the filling from escaping.
Cook for 5 minutes, then use a plate to flip the potato cake and cook for another 5 minutes. The Pan-fried Potato Cake with Bellafesta Light Clai Salami should be well-cooked, so if it’s not browned, you can flip it again and continue cooking for a few more minutes.
