Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set and cooked through.

💡 專業提示
- ✓Using a food processor with a grating attachment can speed up the potato preparation.
- ✓If you don't have sirene, feta cheese can be a substitute, though the flavor will be slightly different.
- ✓For a crispier crust, you can broil the patatnik for the last few minutes of baking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
