Preparation steps

1.

For the crust: Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Add the egg and 2-3 tablespoons of cold water and distribute the butter over the top. Mix with a pastry cutter or two forks, then quickly knead with hands to form a smooth dough. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. 

2.

For the filling: Drain the tuna and break apart with a fork. Peel the carrot and onions. Finely dice the carrot and cut the onion into thin slices. Rinse the leek and cut into thin slices. Thaw the frozen peas. 

3.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F).  

4.

Roll the dough out onto a floured surface and press into a quiche mold, removing any overhang with the back of a knife. Spread the tuna and vegetables into the pan.  

5.

Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, creme fraiche and grated cheese until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the tuna and vegetables and bake for 45 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, cut into wedges and serve.
