List of ingredients for Causa rellena


* 1.25kg cold Potatoes, peeled, Boiled and Mashed thoroughly
* 125 ml Corn or Olive oil
* 1 tablespoon Ají amarillo flakes, soaked in the oil
* 180 ml Lemon juice
* Salt and Pepper to taste
* ¼ of a Spanish Onion, cut into thin strips

===Method===
* To the cold mashed potatoes, add the oil, Ají amarillo flakes, lemon juice and seasonings and mix until the potato is smooth and manageable.
* You now need to layer the causas. The easiest way to do this is use a Mould with both ends open.
* Grease the Mould and taking one-eighth of the Potato mixture, smooth out in the bottom of the mould.
* Place 2 Egg slices on top, followed by 4 Olive halves and a quarter of the Onions.
* Then add a layer of your chosen stuffing.
* Finally add a further eighth of the Potato mixture.
* When unmoulded, repeat the same until you have 4 causas.
* Add garnishes if desired.
