Instructions

Working time approx. 40 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 10 minutes

For the dough: Mix together the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast. Add paprika and herbs to taste. Then add the oil and water and knead everything into a dough. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise. For the filling: Brown the minced meat. While it’s cooking, dice the fresh vegetables (onions, carrots, peppers, tomatoes). After cooking, remove the minced meat from the pan and transfer it to a mixing bowl (preferably metal, as some plastic bowls can be damaged), then brown the vegetables. Then add it to the minced meat. Dice the pickled cucumbers and add them too. Mix together the low-fat quark, cream cheese, and herb cream cheese and season. Then mix with the vegetables and meat. Brush a springform pan with oil and sprinkle with semolina. Line the pan with the dough, reserving enough for a lid. Since the dough didn’t stick to the edges of the pan, I added it little by little so the edges didn’t keep sinking back. Finally, roll out the dough for the lid, place it on the baking sheet, and press it into place along the edges. Cut a small hole in the lid, brush with egg yolk, sprinkle with herbs, and grate some cheese over it. Alternatively, you can bake the cake first and grate the cheese over it halfway through. Bake the cake at 180°C (convection oven) for about 30 minutes. After baking, let it rest in the tin for about 5 minutes, then remove it from the tin and serve.
