Preparation
- Sauté the onions and garlic in olive oil until soft but not browned.
- Add the shrimp and cook just until they turn a light orange-pink color (only a few minutes), don’t overcook, as they will finish cooking in the oven and can become rubbery.
- Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Then add the shrimp to the beaten eggs, followed by the cream, mozzarella cubes, and chopped parsley, and mix gently.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Line a tart pan or springform pan with the shortcrust pastry.
- Lightly prick the bottom with a fork.
- Pour the filling into the pastry shell.
- Bake for about 25 minutes.
- It’s ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the pastry edges are lightly golden.
- Let cool slightly, remove from the pan, and serve warm or at room temperature.
