Try this dish instead of mashed potatoes!
This delicious dish was introduced to Naples in 1768 when the Royal family, the Borboni united to the Asburgo family with the marriage of Ferdinando I and Maria Carolina.
To celebrate the marriage, the best "monsieurs”, French chefs, were brought in to cook the elaborate feast. Potato Gateau was one of the dishes served at the wedding feast. From then on it became custom for the local Neapolitan nobility to hire these "monsiers" in their kitchens. Not having all the French ingredients at their disposal, the chefs started using local ingredients to make the gateau, like smoked mozzarella, salame Napoletano, and the gateau became known as Gatto`di Patate, which is a staple in every Neapolitan home.
