In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, egg, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix until you have a smooth, slightly sticky dough.

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Lightly flour your hands to prevent sticking.

Using your palm, flatten a portion of dough into a disc about 3 inches in diameter.

Place in the center of the disc: 0.9 oz of shredded chicken, 0.5 oz of shredded cheese, and a pinch of oregano.

Gently bring the edges of the dough over the filling to form a small round bun. Smooth the surface.

Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a 9.5-inch non-stick skillet.

Let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
💡 Chef's Tip
For better binding, cool the potatoes before mixing. You can prepare the buns in advance and cook them just before serving. Moderate heat allows the cheese to melt properly without burning the surface.
