Critical Success Points

  • Rest the dough (30 min) to prevent shrinkage
  • Caramelizing the onions to develop sweetness
  • Cook the potatoes just firm so they don't turn into puree
  • Seal the edges with the egg‑yolk glaze to prevent leaks
  • Two‑stage baking to achieve a well‑cooked crust and a melty filling

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven: wear kitchen gloves
  • Be careful of boiling water splashes when cooking the potatoes
  • Use a sharp knife to avoid slipping
