Instructions
Step 1
Strain the cottage cheese for 30 minutes, then preheat oven to 400F.
Step 2
Meanwhile: In a large bowl, whisk together all ingredients, except for leeks. Set aside.
Step 3
Roll one sheet puff pastry into a 15" circle. Place pastry on the bottom of a 9" pie dish. NOTE: You can also lay the puff pastry down in your pie dish square. Just angle the top piece over it, so that you create a "star". This overlap will give you enough crust to roll the edges.
Step 4
Fill pie dish with leek mixture.
Step 5
Roll second sheet of puff pastry into a 15" circle. Cover the pie with the pastry lid. Press the edges together and roll up to seal in the juices. Brush the top of the pastry with the egg wash.
Step 6
Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 7
Let cool 1 hour before slicing or the filling will fall apart.
Step 8
Eat slightly warm or at room tempature.
