Directions

1
Mash the cooked potatoes, then stir in the salt, olive oil, oregano, crushed garlic and finely chopped chili. Mix well.
2
Add the diced turkey ham and mozzarella, then pour in the cream a little at a time, stirring until the mash is smooth and creamy.
3
Spread the mashed potatoes into a small lightly greased baking dish.
4
Cover with a layer of turkey ham slices, then a layer of cheese, and finish with the sliced hard-boiled eggs.
5
Spread a generous tablespoon of mayonnaise over the top.
6
Set the dish aside while you prepare the rice topping.
7
In a bowl, mix the cooked rice, sweet corn, mayonnaise and creamy cheese until smooth and rich. Add more cheese or mayonnaise to taste.
8
Spread the rice mixture in an even layer over the reserved mash.
9
Arrange the remaining egg slices on top of the rice.
10
Finish with a spoonful of mayonnaise so the cheese sets, then serve chilled or bake briefly in the oven.

💡 Chef's Tip

Chef's tip: for a golden gratin, bake for 10 minutes at 180 °C (350 °F) with a little grated cheese on top. You can assemble this dish a day ahead; it keeps for 2 days in the fridge. Swap the turkey ham for shredded chicken for a lighter version.
