Method
Knead the dough like a soft bread dough. Let it double in volume
In the meantime let's make the filling
In a cast iron skillet heat oil sauté the onion and pepperoncini till translucent. Then add the red chilly flakes, salt to taste, mixed herbs, chopped parsley. Mix well then add the mashed potatoes. Let this cool.
Divide the dough into two parts. 
Oil a cast iron 8 inch skillet well.
Roll one part of the dough into a circle to fit the pan.
then evenly distribute the filling 
then place the cheese. 
Cover with the other circle and tuck the edges below to seal the edges.
Then place a small glass and
cut into circle then cut it into equal pieces.
Brush with egg wash and sprinkle the seeds.
Bake at 180°C in a preheated oven for 35 minutes. 
They smell so tempting when they are still warm that I can't wait until they cool completely. 
They are so soft and cheesy.. just irresistible!
