1. For the dough, knead the butter, 1 pinch of salt, and powdered sugar using the dough hook of a hand mixer. Mix in the egg. 2. Knead in the flour and 1 tbsp of cold water until you have a smooth dough. Form into a flat cake with floured hands. Wrap in cling film and chill for 1 hour. 3. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a diameter of 28 cm. Roll onto a rolling pin and unroll over a greased springform pan (26 cm diameter). 4. Press the edges of the dough down firmly to a height of 1 cm. Prick the base several times with a fork. Bake in a preheated oven at 190 degrees Celsius (170 degrees Celsius fan-assisted oven) on the lowest rack for 12 minutes. 5. Whisk together 100 g of sugar, flour, vanilla sugar, and milk. Separate the eggs. Stir in the egg yolks, quark, cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. 6. Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff. Add 100g sugar and cornstarch and beat for 2 minutes until creamy and stiff. 7. Stir ⅓ of the egg whites into the quark mixture with a whisk, then fold in the rest loosely with a spatula. 8. Reduce oven temperature to 170°C (160°C fan oven). Spread quark mixture onto the pre-baked base. Bake on the lowest rack for 20 minutes. 9. Remove cake from the oven. Cut a slit all around 1cm from the edge. Bake for a further 30 minutes. 10. Leave in the switched off, slightly open oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool on a wire rack and dust with icing sugar. Hull, wash and slice strawberries. Mix with sugar and lemon juice, let stand for 10 minutes and serve with the cheesecake.
