Pin Recipe Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190 ° C. Line a tart or quiche pan (23 cm) with the dough.
- Fry the garlic and leek in a pan over medium heat until tender. Add the lentils, mix with the leek and garlic, then stir in the thyme and milk. Bring to the boil and simmer on a low flame for approx. 40 - 50 minutes. Stir occasionally. The mixture should be very thick. Let cool down.
- Whisk the eggs and add to the lentils with 50 g of cheese. Pour the mixture into the prepared form and cover with tomato slices. Scatter the rest of the cheese on top and bake for 45 minutes until the filling has turned color and has set. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
About Editorial Staff
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
