Step 1: Prepare the Pastry

Mix 40 g of quark with the oil, 1 egg and salt. Add the flour and baking powder, then knead to form a dough.

Step 2: Make the Filling

Cut the kohlrabi into thin sticks and spread them over the pastry base.

Finely chop the garlic and slice the spring onions into thin rings. Scatter both over the kohlrabi.

Dice the ham and mix it with the remaining eggs and quark. Season with curry powder, nutmeg, salt and pepper, then pour the mixture over the vegetables.

Step 3: Bake the Quiche

Bake at 160°C in a fan-forced oven for approximately 60 minutes.
