Anyone know how to make .............

Last night we went to dinner with our French neighbours (it's their holiday home - 2 families in hamlet, me & OH and theirs when they are around). Anyway, we had the most delicious Gateau de Pomme de Terre which was cooked in their bread oven.
It was a bread like pastry lining a flan tin filled with sliced potatoes, tuna and herbs (and possibly a light creamy mix of some sort) and topped with the same pastry topping. Absolutely delicious served with lettuce dressed in oil.
Has anyone come across this, have a recipe they could send me?
I meant to ask for the recipe before they left this afternoon, but in a senior moment forgot to ask and I'll probably forget to ask next time they are over in August.

Here's a site with the recipe. No mention of tuna - a special added ingredient, perhaps.
Gateau de Pommes de Terre
If you Google it there are loads of variations but this is the only one with anything like bread - except it is flaky pastry. Maybe they are interchangeable?

I have this recipe if it is any help:
Le pâté de pommes de terre
400g de pâté feuilletée, briochée ou sable
4 pommes de terre moyennes,
2 échalotes
2 gousses d’ail
10 branches de persil plat
20 cl de crème fraîche
Sel, poivre
Tapisser une tourtière de pâté, garnir des pommes de terre émincées, mélangées aux échalotes, a l’ail et au persil haches, sales et poivres; recouvrir de pâte, souder, dorer, ménager au centre une petite cheminée dans laquelle couler, en sortant le pâté du four la crème fraîche
