Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 45 minutes, then leave to rest for approx. 10 minutes. In the meantime defrost the puff pastry. Wash and clean the mushrooms. Chop half finely. Cut the remaining mushrooms into slices. Wash the herbs and dab dry. Chop parsley finely, cut chives into fine rolls. Heat oil. Fry 2 diced onions and the chopped mushrooms until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper and let it cool down a bit. Fold in herbs. Roll out the puff pastry to a rectangle (approx. 25 x 30 cm) on a floured work surface. Spread the farce over it up to a rim of 5 cm. Brush the edges with water.
