sophisticated and simple

Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Then remove the pan from the heat and add the white wine. Mix in the flour and salt and knead everything into a smooth dough. Let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Rinse the prawns in cold water and pat dry. Place them in a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice and stir in the dill. Finely chop the onions and sauté them in a pan with a little butter until soft. Remove from the heat and let cool. Crack the eggs into a bowl, stir in the saffron and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the cream. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease the pan (e.g., a 26cm springform pan). Roll out the dough on a floured surface, place it in the pan and form a 2cm-high edge. Arrange the prawns on top and pour the egg mixture over them. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes. Serve while still hot with a fresh salad. A glass of dry white wine goes perfectly with this.
