For the dough, knead the flour with oil, salt, egg, vegetable stock, and herbs using a dough hook. Grease a quiche dish and press the dough into the dish. Prick the base several times with a fork and chill for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Finely chop the onion. Cut the chicken breast fillet and pumpkin into bite-sized pieces. Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the onions until translucent. Add the chicken and pumpkin and fry for 5 minutes. Add the peas and fry for 2 minutes. Then season with the curry and salt. Remove everything from the pan and let it cool slightly. Pour the milk into the pan and boil off the cooking juices. Whisk the eggs in a bowl and beat with the crème fraîche until smooth. Pour in the milk and season. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture onto the dough, sprinkle with the cheese, and then drizzle with the egg wash. Bake the quiche for 35-40 minutes.
