Leek and Cheese Pie – Gluten-free version

👨‍🍳 Method

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F). Grease a 24 cm pan.

   💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2. 2
   Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the vegetables 8–10 minutes, until it softens.

   💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.

   Let cool 10 minutes before cutting.

   💡Resting before cutting sets the pie: cut straight out of the oven, it is still soft inside and the slices fall apart.
