STEP 1:
Start by washing the leeks and chopping them finely, removing the tough green part to keep only the white part.
STEP 2:
In a skillet, heat a little olive oil and add the leeks to sauté for about 10 minutes.
STEP 3:
Preheat your oven to 210°C (thermostat 7) in order to achieve even heat for baking the tart.
STEP 4:
Roll out the sugar dough in a pie dish and prick it with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
STEP 5:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with some fresh cream, add the leek mixture and fold in a little grated Gruyère cheese.
STEP 6:
Pour the filling over the dough and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the tart is nicely golden.
STEP 7:
Let it rest for a few minutes before serving so that the leek tart is easier to slice.
