  • 0,5 tsp Salt
  • 125 g Butter
  • 2 tbsp Chopped pumpkin seeds
  • 3 -4 tbsp Water

For covering:

  • 200 g Leek
  • 100 g Colorful peppers

For the cast:

  • 1 Mug (200g) Creme fraiche Cheese
  • Milk
  • 0,5 tsp Freshly grated nutmeg
  • 0,5 tsp Vegetable broth, pepper
  • 2 tbsp Grana Padno grated

Topping:

  • 150 g Cheddar diced

Also for the shape:

  • Butter
  • Breadcrumbs

Instructions

The floor:

  • Mix the flour, ground flaxseed and salt and knead the butter well.
  • Mix in the chopped pumpkin seeds and add enough water to make a soft shortcrust pastry.
  • Butter a 30cm quiche pan and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
  • Spread the dough piece by piece in the mold and press it flat, pulling up the edge.
  • Now place in the refrigerator for an hour and let cool down.

Prepare the base:

  • The pumpkin flesh is rubbed over the coarse grater, the leek cut into fine rings and the bell pepper, depending on the type, in strips or rings.
  • Mix the vegetables well in a large bowl and set aside.

Making the cast:

  • Put the creme fraiche in a bowl and fill the beaker with milk, add this to the creme fraiche.
  • Add all other ingredients for the glaze, mix well and season very strongly. It can be a little over-seasoned, because the topping will season the entire topping.

Bake quiche:

  • Remove the chilled base from the refrigerator and distribute the vegetables evenly on top. Press something on and pour the glaze over it.
  • Slide the quiche onto the second rack from the bottom of the preheated oven and bake at 180 ° top / bottom heat for 20 minutes.
  • Take the quiche out briefly and spread the cheddar on top. Bake for another 25-30 minutes.

Good Appetite!
