In another pot, whisk the egg and sugar together until it is frothy, add the potato flakes and vanilla, and mix well, slowing add the milk so that no lumps are formed, place on the heat and mix until it is nicely thickened. Mix your jam in the glass of grappa. Remove your dough from the fridge, roll it out onto a crostata baking tray, and prick holes with the prong of a fork. Bake for 20 minutes at 180°C.
