Leek cake

Make a quark shortcrust pastry from the ingredients: Put the flour in a bowl and add the butter, low-fat quark, herb salt, and baking powder. Mix everything well until you have a smooth dough. Let it rest for a while. In the meantime, wash the leek and cut it into rings. Sauté the leek in hot olive oil. Season with salt, pepper (freshly ground), paprika, and caraway seeds, then let it cool. Mix together 1 tablespoon of flour and the sour cream. Add the eggs, grated cheese, and herbs and whisk to combine. Then pour the egg mixture over the leek. Roll out the dough and place it in a prepared springform pan, making sure the edges are about 5 cm high. Add the leek. Bake the quiche in a preheated oven at 200°C – 220°C for about 45 minutes.
