- Whisk the eggs with the crème fraîche and add the milk.
- Stir in the Roquefort and Emmental and season with salt and ground black pepper.
- Grease a springform tin with butter and coat with flour.
- Line the tin with the dough, first using your fists to press it into the tin then using your fingertips to spread it out.
- Finally form a lip 3-4 cm high and leave to prove for a while longer.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and fry the vegetables.
- Drain off the juices and tip the vegetables onto the dough.
- Spread the Roquefort mixture evenly over the vegetables on the base of the tart.
