Gattó di patate aka italian potato cake
Cakes
Many dishes from Campania have names that derive from French, having being ruled by France for many years in the past. Gattò comes from the French gâteau (cake) as this dish resembles a cake. <br /> <br />Traditionally, this cake is layered with ham or mortadella and cheese between the potato mash and served as a main dish. I’ve tweaked the traditional by using roasted cherry tomato in place of meat and serve it as a vegetarian side. <br /> <br />The cake is best served near room temperature; a perfect dish to make ahead. Who can resist the cheesy, roasted tomato filling oozing out of this potato cake? <br />
