Pour the beaten egg into the well, followed by 6 cl of mild-flavoured olive oil and the water. Mix well as you go along. Shape into a ball. Wrap in cling film and leave to rest for about 1 hour in the fridge. Take it out 5 minutes before rolling it out.
- Prepare the quiche: finely chop the onion and leek. Fry the onion in 1 tablespoon of mild-flavoured olive oil until golden. Add the leek, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 210°C.
- Roll out the pastry, prick it with a fork, then arrange the leeks, the diced salmon and half the grated Comté cheese on top.
- Beat the 2 eggs with the crème fraîche, Espelette pepper, salt and pepper, and 2 tablespoons of mild-flavoured olive oil. Pour over the leeks and salmon.
