Instructions

  1. Quickly make a shortcrust pastry from flour, butter, egg, salt, pepper and lemon and leave to rest in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes. Put the dough in a springform pan or quiche form, form a rim, prick and prebake at 200 ° C for 15 minutes. Cut the leek into fine rings, sauté in olive oil, season to taste and allow to cool. Mix the quark, cheese, eggs and cream and season to taste. Add the leek and spread the mixture over the pre-baked cake. Bake at 175 ° C for another 40-50 minutes.

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.
