How to Make Delicious Potato Pandorini Appetizer
Start by boiling the potatoes until you can pierce them with a fork.
When they are ready, drain them and mash them with the potato ricer.
At this point, add salt, grated parmesan cheese, and the egg.
Once you have a homogeneous mixture, oil the pandoro molds and then sprinkle them with breadcrumbs. Fill the molds to form the flan: gradually spoon the mixture, using the back of the spoon to make it adhere to the bottom and the edge, leaving space in the center to fill with a piece of cheese.
Drizzle each flan with a thread of olive oil and bake in the oven at 356°F for about 35 minutes.
Remove from the oven, invert onto a serving plate, and decorate with a slice of prosciutto.
