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
