Cheese tart

Grease and flour a tart pan. Roll out the puff pastry in it. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Mix all ingredients well (I always start by whisking the eggs) and pour it onto the dough. Then bake in the oven for about 20 minutes (note: middle rack, not all the way up, as the eggs will cause the dough to rise quite a bit!). It’s so simple, but I’ve already received a lot of praise for it. It tastes great with a leaf salad and is so quick!
