Instructions

Working time approx. 35 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 35 minutes

Knead the flour, butter, and salt into a dough, roll it out, and place it in a springform pan (26-30 cm in diameter), pressing the edges up to about 3 cm. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Finely grate or chop the vegetables and blanch them in salted water for 2 minutes, then drain. Finely dice the onions and chilies, mix them with the blanched vegetables, and then add them to the dough. Whisk together the cheese, sour cream, eggs, tomato paste, and herbs, and season to taste. Pour the mixture over the vegetables and bake in the oven at 180-200°C for 35-40 minutes until golden brown. Please let stand on the table for another 10 minutes after baking; this will make it easier to remove from the pan.
