Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
The base of the pie is, of course, the pastry. There are many recipes for shortcrust pastry. In this case, I used the classic dough made from butter, flour, ice water, and salt.
Step 2
Let's start preparing the filling. Chop the white part of the leek and sauté it in 3 tablespoons of olive oil until soft, but do not overcook. Add the chopped anchovies and a bit of their oil to the leek. Add the tomatoes, season with salt to taste, and simmer on low heat until most of the moisture has evaporated.
Step 3
Drain the oil from the tuna and add it to the pan with the tomatoes and leek. Also add the finely chopped garlic, herbes de Provence, and simmer a bit more.
Step 4
Allow the filling to cool slightly and mix it with two eggs.
Step 5
Roll out the shortcrust pastry, place it in a baking dish, prick it with a fork, line it with parchment paper, fill it with beans, and bake in the oven at 190–390°F for 10 minutes.
Step 6
In the partially baked crust, add the filling, decorate it with olives, sprinkle with grated cheese, drizzle with a little olive oil, and bake for another 20 minutes at the same temperature.
