Instructions

1. Dough: Add a pinch of salt to buckwheat flour, cold butter cut into pieces, knead into crumbs, add 1 egg and knead the dough, pouring 2-3 tablespoons of cold water. The dough will turn out to be quite plastic, only slightly crumbling (add 1 more spoonful of water if necessary). You need to work with the test immediately.
2. Grease the mold with butter, distribute the dough evenly over the mold with your hands. Put in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 10 minutes.
3. While the dough is baking, prepare the filling: Cut the onion into small rings, fry the white part of the onion in a mixture of butter and olive oil for 1-2 minutes, then add the green part and fry for another 1 minute. Salt to taste. Postpone.
4. Beat the cream and 3 eggs with a whisk, add the grated cheese (set aside for sprinkling on top). Put the onion on the dough, pour the creamy mixture, sprinkle with cheese on top. Bake for another 30 minutes at 180 degrees until golden brown. Serve immediately warm.
