spinach and leek quiche

A hearty, savory tray bake featuring a soft, biscuit-like dough base topped with a generous filling of sautéed leeks, spinach, and onions, bound together with a lactose-free milk custard and tangy white cheese. This dish takes inspiration from Turkish cuisine, utilizing ingredients like 'Beyaz Peynir' (white cheese) and yogurt-enriched dough.
