👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter.
- 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and lukewarm milk. Gradually add this to the flour mixture, mixing with a fork until a dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- 3
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, form into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

While the dough chills, prepare the filling: Blanch the chopped chard in boiling water for 1 minute, then drain and squeeze out as much excess water as possible. In a bowl, combine the blanched chard, grated bètchèye cheese, chopped onion, sliced green onions, chopped parsley, and black pepper.
- 5
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 23cm (9-inch) tart pan with a removable base.
- 6
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit the tart pan, pressing it into the base and up the sides. Trim any excess dough.
- 7
Pour the chard and cheese filling into the prepared tart shell and spread evenly.
- 8
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set and lightly golden on top.

Let the tart cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing the sides. Serve warm or at room temperature.
