Notes
Use well-cooked potatoes and mash them while still warm to make preparation easier. Since the potato mixture is soft, spread it with a spoon and seal all edges well so the cheese does not escape as it melts. Wait until the base releases from the edges before flipping to avoid breaking. Using a second buttered skillet makes flipping much safer. Serve hot to enjoy the creamy filling.
