  5. Season with a pinch of salt and mix everything very well.
  6. Now add that mix over the mashed poatoes in the baking dish and top it with the rest of the mashed poatoes.
  7. In the same frying pan where you fried the onion, put the remaining olive oil, then add the corn bread crumb and mix well and let it fry a little.
