Heat oven to 180 °C and line a 23 cm plate with chilled proposed pastry.
Step 3
Mix drained cottage cheese, soft butter, 50 g sugar, eggs and currants; fill shell and sprinkle with remaining sugar and cinnamon.
Step 4
Bake 35–45 minutes until crust golden and egg-cheese filling set through. Rest before slicing; serve warm or chilled.
