👨🍳 Instructions

For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and oil, mixing until a cohesive dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
⏱️ 37 minutes - 2
Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well and mash them roughly.
⏱️ 20 minutes💡 Conseils de pro: Do not overcook the potatoes, they should still hold some shape. - 3
While potatoes are boiling, heat 3 tbsp of oil in a pan. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent, then add the sliced leeks and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
⏱️ 18 minutes💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure leeks are thoroughly softened to release their sweetness. - 4
Combine the mashed potatoes, sautéed leeks and onions, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Mix well.
💡 Conseils de pro: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. - 5
Divide the dough into two portions, one slightly larger than the other. Roll out the larger portion to line a greased baking dish (approx. 25x35 cm).
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure the dough covers the bottom and sides of the dish. - 6
Spread the potato and leek filling evenly over the dough base.
💡 Conseils de pro: Press the filling down gently. - 7
Roll out the second portion of dough and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal.
💡 Conseils de pro: You can also cut the top dough into strips for a lattice effect. - 8
Brush the top of the pie with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Make a few small slits on top to allow steam to escape.
💡 Conseils de pro: Use a pastry brush for even application. - 9
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 40-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crisp.
⏱️ 50 minutes - 10
Let the pie cool slightly before slicing and serving.
