Method

1
In a bowl, rub together the wheat flour, salt, and room-temperature butter with your fingers. Add the water and quickly mix into a smooth dough.
2
Press the dough onto the bottom and sides of a greased pie dish (Ø 26 cm).
3
Pre-bake the crust at 200 degrees on the lowest rack of the oven for about 10 minutes.
4
Finely chop the onion. Dice the washed bell pepper.
5
Brown the ground beef in a pan in its own fat. Add the onion, diced bell pepper, and tomato paste. Sauté while stirring. Season with salt and pepper. Finally, add the parsley and stir.
6
Sprinkle half of the grated cheese onto the pre-baked pie crust. Add the ground beef mixture evenly over the grated cheese. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top of the ground beef mixture.
7
Whisk the eggs in a bowl to break their structure. Add the cream and mix. Pour the mixture evenly into the pie dish.
8
Bake at 200 degrees on the lowest rack of the oven for 25–30 minutes, until the filling has completely set and the surface has gained some color. Serve the pie slightly cooled.
