About the dish

Tortino di patate e carne is a traditional pie originating from the region of Alto Adige. This savory crustless pie is usually made with a combination of onions, butter, olive oil, potatoes, bay leaves, marjoram, parsley, seasonings, and pieces of boiled or roasted meat such as veal, beef, or chicken. The onions are sautéed in butter and oil, followed by the meat, potatoes, bay leaves, and marjoram. Once all the ingredients have been browned, the dish is seasoned with salt and pepper and mixed with chopped parsley. The mixture is worked into the shape of a pie with a wooden spoon, and it's then served warm.
