Ingredients

Servings: 8
  • 250 g Flour
  • 6 Eggs (size M)
  • 125 g Butter or margarine
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 1 kg white asparagus
  • 350 g baby carrots
  • 250 g Schmand
  • 7-10 Tbsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated nutmeg
  • 7-10 Tbsp Chervil
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • 7-10 Tbsp Grease

Directions

  1. 1

    For the short pastry, place flour, 1 egg, fat in flakes and salt in a mixing bowl and knead with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Then knead again with your hands to a smooth dough and cover and leave in a cool place for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    In the meantime, wash and peel the asparagus and cut off the lower woody ends. Clean the carrots (leave a little green if you like), wash and peel them. Put asparagus and carrots in boiling salted water and cook for 10-12 minutes.

  3. 3

    Then carefully lift it out of the water and let it drain well. Place on a tea towel and pat dry slightly. Roll out the short pastry into a circle (approx. 32 cm Ø) on a floured work surface.

  4. 4

    Place in a well greased tart tin (26 cm Ø, edge height 4 cm) and press the edge down. Prick the base several times with a fork. Refrigerate again for about 10 minutes. In the meantime, put the sour cream and the remaining eggs into a mixing bowl and mix well with the whisks of the hand mixer.

  5. 5

    Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Put carrots and asparagus in the form on the dough. Pour the egg custard over the dough. Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 50 minutes on the lowest rack.

  6. 6

    If necessary, cover after half the baking time. Remove from the oven and serve garnished with chervil as desired.
