At a glance
Start with a simple cheese pastry that comes together quickly and rests for an hour before being partially pre-baked. The warm base is then topped with creamy cottage cheese, sweet pears and tangy blue cheese, then baked a little longer until golden.

Make the soft pastry
Mix plain flour, butter, grated hard cheese, egg and salt into a smooth dough. The dough shouldn't be sticky. If it feels too dry, add a splash of fresh milk. Wrap the soft dough in plastic film and let it rest for an hour.
