Boil potatoes until tender, then mash and set aside.
Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Mix the sautéed onions with mashed potatoes, chopped parsley, and diced tomatoes.
Roll out the risen dough into a round shape on a baking sheet.
Spread the potato mixture evenly over the dough.
Top with sliced Maltese sausage, black olives, and cheese.
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a border.
