Tiella alla barese ingredients
  • fresh tomatoes
  • zucchini
Slice the potatoes and the zucchini; keep the knife close to the fingers.
  • extra virgin olive oil
Put a little extra virgin olive oil in the bottom; mix the vegetables with the onion, garlic, parsley and tomato and lay a first layer of potatoes and vegetables.
Add cheese, then the mussels facing up.
Drizzle with olive oil and distribute the rice in a thin layer; too much rice makes it dry.

Finish with another layer of the vegetables; top with bread mixed with cheese for a crust, and olive oil.
Bake at 180 degrees for one hour.
