Now after quite a few pies I have a routine set for my own vegetable pie :)
3 sheets of frozen puff pastry
Filling:
1 egg
160g curd
1 egg
160g curd
200g cream cheese (in Latvia the clear choice is "Dzintars" for all of you who doesn't live here .. well I just hope you have something similar in your stores too)
Decoration: ;)
1 beet (boiled, cut in strips)
2 potatoes (boiled, cut in strips)
Instructions:
2 potatoes (boiled, cut in strips)
2 carrots (boiled, cut in strips)
1/2 zucchini (cut in strips)
100g cheese (cut in strips)
100g sausage (cut in strips)
drop of oil
drop of oil
Instructions:
- Start with boiling your veggies (because that will take up quite some time).
- Unfreeze puff pastry.
- Preheat oven 200。C.
- Cut vegetables in long strips (you can use pretty much any vegetable you'd like) about 2 cm wide, 0.3 cm thick and as long as you can ;) Cut cheese and sausage in long strips too.
- Fill the base of the chosen baking pan with puff pastry. Bake for 15min.
- Make the filling: Whip the egg. Add curd, mix. Add cream cheese, mix (I found it easier to do this with fork).
- Take base out of the oven, fill it.
- Arrange the decoration ;) start from middle with carrot (because it is pliant) and work your way to the edges. it can be quite messy (at least for me first 10 times I made this everything was everywhere, but the pie was still delicious, now I can brag that kitchen and me is rather clean after making this)
- When you have arranged the veggies+ smear the oil over to make it look better and bake for 35min.
- let it cool a bit, like 10 or 15 min and it's ready to be eaten ;)
Just to brag a bit more - I have tried quite a few variations of arrangement too ;)
Happy cooking!
Happy taste buds ;)
