How
to prepare it:
Mix
600 Gr. flour, 2 spoonfuls of oil, a little water and
salt. Cut it into 6 pieces, roun them and let them stand
for at least 1 hour. Wash the chards, cut the white stalk
from the leaf, slice and boil them in salted water. Drain
and squeeze them. Put the sliced chards on a large dish,
salt and sprinkle them with cheese, add a pinch of minced
marjoram. Mix the curds and the sifted flour (25 Gr.),
add pinch of salt, mix everything and add the cream. Oil
the baking sheet, prepare the first very thin piece of
pastry, which you have cut from the dough, lay it in the
baking sheet and oil it. The same procedure goes for the
second layer as well. As for the third layer, lay the
sliced chards on it without oiling it. Then pour a little
oil on the sliced chards and spread the curds on them.
Dig small holes in the layer of chards by means of a spoon,
put a little butter and one egg in each one of them. Dress
with oil, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, salt and pepper.
Cover the ingredients with the more oiled layers. Shape
the edges of the layers so to have a crust for the pie.
Oil the surface of the pie. Bake in the oven, at medium
heat for 40-45 minutes.
