Original recipe of my French Mémé

Knead the first four ingredients into a dough, wrap in foil, and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Meanwhile, finely chop both types of ham. Whisk the sour cream with the eggs, pepper, and salt. Roll out the dough thinly on foil and then place it in a buttered and breadcrumb-coated dish. Prick the base with a fork. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (convection oven) for about 10 minutes. Spread the filling over the dough and bake for about 35–40 minutes.
