Servings 4 pax

  • 400 g Pound dough
  • 100 g Boter

  • 225 g Ui thin slices
  • salt and pepper

Put the pie on a rack and carefully remove the ring. Bring the cream to a boil in a saucepan, let it bubble for 2-3 minutes and stir in salt and pepper. Pour through the chimney with small bits at the same time and add the next drizzle only when the previous one has been absorbed (in total about 20 minutes). Cut the pie on the table warm.
