Cooking instructions 1 hour

1 For the casserole dish, make or buy ready-made puff pastry. Sieve the flour first, then add the cold butter, cut into pieces. Add 0.5 tsp. salt, 2-3 tbsp. cold water and knead the dough. Dip your hands in cold water to prevent the dough from sticking. Leave the dough to rest for a few minutes in cling film in the refrigerator before unrolling.

2 Then place the thin dough in a deep mould and press it against the rim of the mould, trimming off the excess. The excess dough can be frozen until next time. Then prick the bottom of the dough with a knife. Place the basil leaves in the bottom of the dough tin and top with the mozzarella balls.

3 For the filling: put two whole eggs and 2 yolks, 50 ml cream, 50 grated grated hard cheese and spices into the blender bowl. Blend it all with the blender until smooth. Pour the mixture into the dish and top with the olives and cherry tomatoes.

4 Prepare the cake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes at 180 degrees.

Recipe tip You can add salt, pepper, basil and thyme to taste.
