Ingredients

• Cottage cheese: 100 g
• Butter: 100 g
• Wheat flour: 100 g
• Salt: pinch
• Green onions: 250 g
• Chicken egg: 6 pc
• Cream: 200 ml

Cooking steps

1. Sift 100 grams of flour and a small pinch of salt into a bowl. Cut 100 grams of cold butter and add it to the same bowl. Also, add dry cottage cheese. Then, using a knife or a special dough cutter, chop the butter and cottage cheese into the flour, leaving pieces the size of a hazelnut or slightly smaller. Next, make a well in the dough and pour in one egg yolk. Gradually, using circular motions, incorporate all the butter and flour into the yolk and knead the dough. If it doesn't come together—depending on how moist the cottage cheese is—you can gradually add the egg white. When the dough ball is ready, slightly flatten it, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least half an hour, preferably an hour.

   Required ingredients:

   • Wheat flour: 100 g
   • Salt:  pinch
   • Butter: 100 g
   • Cottage cheese: 100 g
   • Chicken egg: 6 pieces

2. Roll the dough to a thickness of 2-3 mm and place it in the mold. Poke the bottom in several places with a fork. To trim the edges, roll a rolling pin over the top of the mold — the edges will be cut and stick to the walls, so they won't drop. Line the dough with parchment and fill it with baking beans. It's important to work quickly with the cottage cheese dough — so it doesn't spread before going into a preheated oven at 200 degrees for fifteen minutes. Then remove the dough from the oven and take off the parchment with the beans.

3. Mix the cream with one egg, a good pinch of salt, and a teaspoon of flour. No need to beat the mixture, just stir with a fork.

   Required ingredients:

   • Cream: 200 ml
   • Chicken egg: 6 pieces
   • Salt:  pinch
   • Wheat flour: 100 g

4. Chop the green onions into small rings. Divide the cream in half and mix one half with the onions. Place the onion in cream on the baked crust, then crack four eggs directly on top with whole yolks. Evenly pour the remaining cream over the entire surface of the pie, including the yolks.

   • Green onions: 250 g
