2 Garlic cloves
150 g crème fraîche
3 eggs
200 ml whipping cream

Instructions

1.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
2.
Wash the zucchini, peel the carrots and grate both roughly. Slice the leeks lengthwise, wash, clean, and cut into rings. Heat half of the butter in a pan and sauté the vegetables for about 3 minutes.
3.
Cook the pasta in boiling salted water for approximately 5 minutes, then drain, rinse with cold water, and let it dry well.
4.
Peel the garlic cloves and press them into the vegetable mixture. Combine the vegetables with the pasta and season with salt and pepper.
5.
Grease a heat‑proof baking dish and pour in the pasta mixture. Mix the crème fraîche, eggs, cream, and half of the cheese together, then pour over the pasta. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
6.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes until golden brown. Serve immediately.
