Recipe

1. Prepare the crust:

   • In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt.

   • Add the butter, cut into small pieces, and work with your fingers until you get a sandy texture.

   • Add the egg and mix. If the dough is too dry, add a bit of cold water (one tablespoon at a time).

   • Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

     
     

2. Prepare the filling:

   • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

   • Peel and slice 1/2 pumpkin. Roast at 200°C (390°F) for 15-20 minutes, until tender.

   • In a small bowl, mix the cream with the mustard, salt, and pepper.

   
   

3. Assemble the pie:

   • Roll out the dough on a floured surface and line a 24 cm (9-inch) pie pan.

   • Prick the bottom of the dough with a fork.

   • Spread the mustard cream mixture over the bottom of the crust.

   • Add the roasted pumpkin on top, followed by crumbled feta cheese.

   • Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the filling is golden and set.
