Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C/gas mark 4.

Step 2

Add oil to a pan over a medium to low heat, then add the leeks. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring regularly until they are soft. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

Spray a cake or flan tin with oil, then spray each square of pastry and lay them on the flan tin, creating a star shape.

Step 4

Add the eggs, yogurt and pepper to a bowl and beat well. Stir in the leeks and put the mixture into the pastry case. Sprinkle with goat's cheese and bake for 15-18 minutes, until just set.

Step 5

Scatter with chives and a little black pepper to serve.
