If you like potato gateau or potato pizza you will also love potato crumble. It is called this because the boiled potatoes are crumbled to create a shell that contains various fillings: cheese, sausage, minced meat, ham, salmon or vegetables if you want a vegetarian crumble.
The crumbled bread is cooked in the oven so that a nice crunchy crust forms on the surface and a soft, stringy heart inside. Crumbled potatoes are good hot but also cold and therefore suitable for lunches to be prepared in advance or lunches out such as rustic ricotta and spinach pizza, focaccia from Bari, focaccine, meat calzone or traditional Apulian onion calzone.
