Step 1
1. In a large bowl, mix flour, starch, and salt. Add butter cut into pieces and mix with a dough knife until the mixture resembles crumbs. Add the egg and mix with a fork. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface into a 30 cm circle. Transfer the dough into a 22 cm pie dish, gently pressing it to remove air bubbles. Place the pie dish with the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 175 degrees. Slice potatoes into 6 mm thick slices. Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water by 5 cm. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the water and dry the potatoes on paper towels.
