1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter, melted
6-7 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons butter
4 cups leek, sliced
3 eggs
1/2 cup cream
1 cup parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste

PREPARATION

STEP 1
Pour the flour and salt into a bowl, mix, and add the butter and water. Stir with a spoon first, and then with your hands, until everything is mixed. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Heat the 2 extra tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat and add the leek. Cook it for approximately 15 minutes until soft. Let it cool.

STEP 5
In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cream with a whisk and add salt and pepper, to taste.

STEP 6
Stir in the cooked leeks and cheese into the bowl and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Then, pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 35 minutes, until the surface is golden and the dough is cooked.
