Classic Blender Torta de Fiambre
This authentic variation uses the traditional 'licuadora' (blender) method popular in Uruguay and Argentina for an effortless savory pie. A simple, pancake-like batter surrounds generous layers of ham and melting cheese, creating a soft, golden, and universally loved comfort dish.
Ingredients
3 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
7 oz (200g) deli ham, sliced
7 oz (200g) mozzarella cheese, sliced
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and generously grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or oil.
- 2
In a blender, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, milk, and salt. Blend on high speed until the mixture is uniform.
- 3
Add the flour and baking powder to the liquid mixture in the blender. Blend again until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
- 4
Pour exactly half of the batter into the prepared baking dish, tilting the pan to ensure it covers the bottom evenly.
- 5
Layer the ham slices over the batter, followed by the mozzarella cheese slices, covering the surface completely.
- 6
Pour the remaining batter over the cheese layer. Use a spatula to gently spread it to the edges, sealing in the filling.
- 7
Sprinkle the top with grated Parmesan cheese to create a crispy golden crust.
- 8
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and puffed. Let it cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
