Instructions:

The cheese and pear pie is baked in a pie dish with a diameter of approx. 280 mm.

For this purpose, roll out two thirds of the puff pastry significantly larger than an oval or round medium-sized pie dish. Line the pie dish with it so that the pastry laps about 2 cm over the edge. Prick the bottom with a fork. Chill the pie dish with the pastry for at least fifteen minutes.

Roll out the remaining puff pastry to form a lid the size of the pie dish. Also put in a cool place.

Separate the pears from the skin, cut them in half and discard the core. Cut the fruit into slices. Sauté immediately in the warm butter. Allow to cool.

Finely chop the parsley. Mix with the curd as well as the egg yolk. Season with pepper and salt and spread on the pastry base. Place the pear slices on top.

Put Roquefort cheese on top. Sprinkle the walnuts over the filling. Season everything with a few turns of ground pepper.

Fold the overlapping dough over the filling, brush with tap water. Cut out two or three pear-shaped steam holes from the dough lid and place the dough lid on top. Neatly smooth the edges, perhaps seal with a fork or dough clip. Brush with egg yolk.

Meanwhile, bake the cheese and pear pie in the oven preheated to 180° degrees Celsius on the lowest shelf for about forty minutes.
