HOW TO MAKE THE SAVORY POTATO AND ZUCCHINI PIE
Wash the zucchini, trim the ends, and use a peeler to cut them into very thin slices lengthwise. Grill the zucchini slices on a grill pan. Peel the potatoes, wash them, and slice them very thinly.
Place the rectangular puff pastry roll in a baking pan lined with parchment paper. My baking pan measures 8.6 x 11 inches. Prick the bottom with a fork. Arrange the grilled zucchini slices, slightly overlapping, on the puff pastry base. Cover with slices of scamorza cheese or another soft melting cheese.
Now place the potato slices all over the surface, slightly overlapping them. Salt, sprinkle with the chopped rosemary. Drizzle with oil and generously sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake the Savory Potato and Zucchini Pie in a preheated oven at 375°F in static mode for 25 minutes. Let it cool slightly and enjoy it hot or at room temperature.

If any Savory Pie is left over, store it in a container in the fridge for 2 days or you can also freeze it. You just need to reheat it for a few minutes in the oven or microwave to make it crispy again as if it were freshly made.
For a more flavorful pie, you can add slices of cooked ham or speck on top of the scamorza cheese slices.
