recipe

  • Step 1
    If needed, defrost your salmon. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Spread the puff pastry in the tart pan (on top of its paper liner) and prick its surface with a fork. When the oven is hot, bake the crust for 5 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, remove and discard the dark-green part and root end of the leeks*. Wash the remaining parts and cut in half lengthwise, then into thin slices. *Check out our tips for this step
  • Step 3
    Melt a dab of butter in a pan over medium heat, add the leeks and cook for about 2 minutes. Add a drizzle of water, cover and cook for 6 more minutes.
  • Step 4
    Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the cream, season with salt and pepper and mix with a whisk until smooth.
  • Step 5
    Remove the salmon skin, if necessary, and cut it into bite-size chunks.
  • Step 6
    When the leeks are done, remove the pan from heat and set aside.
  • Step 7
    Spread the mustard on the bottom of the crust. Add the leeks and salmon.
  • Step 8
    Pour the egg-cream mixture into the tart pan. Season with salt and pepper and bake for 45 minutes. Serve hot!

♻️ Zero waste tip

For a zero-waste dish, use the discarded leek stalks to make soup ! Rinse well & remove all damaged, dry & yellow parts before adding to your pot with the ingredients of your choosing.
