Preparation time: 20 minutes Baking time: 60 minutes Total time: 80 minutes Number of servings: 6-8 Your ingredients will transform into a magical combination of textures and flavors. Here’s what you need: Ingredients: - 400 g puff pastry - 4 eggs - 2-3 small Nutriday yogurts (approximately 400 g) - 300 g smoked neck - 150 g smoked sausages - 100 g chicken ham - 100 g telemea cheese - 100 g cheese - 1 can sliced mushrooms (approximately 400 g) - 1 bunch of fresh parsley - herb-flavored salt - hot chili powder (optional) - freshly ground pepper - 2 tablespoons oil The history of the yogurt pie takes us back to family meals, to moments when loved ones gather around the table. This recipe blends tradition with modernity, being easy to adapt based on available ingredients and personal preferences. It is a dish that can be enjoyed hot or cold, making it ideal for picnics, office lunches, or quick dinners. Step 1: Prepare your ingredients Make sure you have all the ingredients at hand. Buy the puff pastry from the store or, if you feel adventurous, you can make it at home. Start by slicing the cold cuts thinly so they distribute evenly in the pie. If you want an extra flavor boost, you can sauté the neck and sausages in oil before adding them to the mixture, but this is completely optional. Step 2: Preheat the oven Set the oven to 180 degrees Celsius to preheat while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. It is important for the pie to be placed in a well-heated oven to achieve a perfectly browned crust. Step 3: Prepare the filling In a large bowl, beat the 4 eggs with the yogurts. This combination will give the pie a creamy texture and a delicious flavor. Add the sliced cold cuts, drained mushrooms, grated telemea, chopped parsley, and seasonings – salt, pepper, and a little chili powder if you like spicy food. Mix well until all ingredients are homogeneous. Step 4: Assemble the pie Line a baking tray with parchment paper to facilitate the removal of the pie after baking. Roll out the puff pastry on the bottom of the tray, ensuring you cover the edges well. Then, pour the filling mixture over the pastry and level it evenly. Don’t forget to add the sliced chicken ham on top and grate the cheese on a fine grater for a golden and crispy crust. Step 5: Bake the pie Place the tray in the preheated oven and let the pie bake for about 60 minutes. It is important to check from time to time to ensure it does not burn. When it turns golden and the filling sets, it’s ready! Step 6: Serve and enjoy Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting. It can be served both hot and cold, alongside a yogurt and garlic sauce or a slightly spicy tomato sauce. This adds a contrast of flavors and a creamy texture that will perfectly complement the dish. Useful tips: - You can experiment with different types of cold cuts, even with vegetables like peppers or zucchini, to create a vegetarian pie. - Substitute the yogurts with a Greek variant for a denser and richer texture. - If you want a lower-calorie pie, you can use whole grain pastry or even make a dough from oat flour. Nutritional benefits: This pie is a good source of protein thanks to the eggs and cold cuts, while the yogurt brings a healthy dose of probiotics. The telemea and cheese provide essential calcium for bone health. Depending on the ingredients you choose, you can adapt the recipe to fit your nutritional needs. Frequently asked questions: 1. Can I use other types of cheese? Of course! You can use cottage cheese, feta, or any other type of cheese you like. 2. How should I store the pie? The pie can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 2-3 days. It can be reheated in the oven or microwave. 3. Can I freeze the pie? Yes, you can freeze the pie before baking it. Then, take it out of the freezer a few hours before baking and follow the recipe as usual. This yogurt and cold cuts pie is more than just a simple recipe; it is an invitation to experiment, to enjoy cooking, and to gather family and friends around the table. Whether you serve it as an appetizer or a main dish, it will surely bring smiles to the faces of your loved ones. Enjoy your meal!
