As you know, pie is not something Indian and quite mild in taste for an Indian palate, especially mine which loves strong flavors. So I made a gluten-free version by spicing up a regular recipe. AND guess what, it turned out super delicious!
Pie crust:
100 gr chickpea flour
100 g amaranth flour
1 tbsp fiber husk
70 g oil
1-2 tablespoons water
Fill:
1 tbsp coriander paste
Vegetables as desired
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
2½ dl milk
100 g yellow cheese
Procedure:
- Make pie dough and let it stand for half an hour.
- Bake the pie crust for 10 minutes at 200 degrees. Remember to prick it with a fork when you put it in the oven.
- Whisk eggs and milk with salt. Fill with vegetables and pour over the egg mixture. Finish with grated cheese if desired and bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes or until the egg mixture is firm.
Served with a delicious fresh salad and, for example, mango and lime chutney – YUM!
