Instructions

  • 1.   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • 2.   Clean and slice the leeks.
  • 3.   Steam the leeks for 30 minutes or cook them in a large pot of simmering water.
  • 4.   Once the leeks are well cooked and soft, drain the water using a fork (by pressing them) in a colander.
  • 5.   In a pan, sauté the leeks for 2 minutes.
  • 6.   Towards the end of cooking, add 1 capsule of Maggi® vegetable bouillon to the vegetables and mix until the bouillon dissolves. You can also prepare a vegetable broth separately by dissolving a bouillon cube in a volume of water.
  • 7.   In a separate bowl, mix together the thick cream and the liquid cream. Add the egg yolk, 100g of grated gruyère cheese, salt, and pepper. Finally, mix everything well until you obtain a homogeneous tart filling.
  • 8.   Roll out the pie crust in a tart dish and prick the bottom of the crust with a fork.
  • 9.   Incorporate the leeks into the cream mixture, stir, and bind with an additional 50g of grated gruyère cheese.
  • 10.   Spread the mixture onto the pie crust.
  • 11.   Arrange the goat cheese slices into 6 equal parts on top of the tart filling.
  • 12.   Sprinkle 50g of gruyère cheese on top so that your easy leek and goat cheese tart is well gratinated after baking.
  • 13.   Bake your easy leek and goat cheese tart for 30 minutes until it is golden brown on top.
  • 14.   Remove the easy leek and goat cheese tart from the oven and serve it hot immediately or let it cool to room temperature. Enjoy it warm or cold with a well-seasoned green salad.
