  1. Peel the potatoes and cut into pieces. Cook them in salted, boiling water then drain them and crush with a fork.

  3. Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas 6.
  4. Cut the mozzarella and the bacon into pieces and set aside.
  5. Mix the mashed potatoes and the flour and knead to form a ball of dough.
