Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking/baking time: 20 minutes

Ingredients for 12 people:
- 1 Tarte Flambée dough roll (alternatively puff pastry if Tarte Flambée dough is not available)
- 150 g sour cream (20% fat)
- 50 g bacon cubes
- ½ onion
- 100 g grated cheese
- some lemon juice
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 1 egg
Preparation:
1. Preparation:
Place the sour cream in a bowl, season generously with salt and pepper, and finish with a dash of lemon juice. Finely chop half the onion.
2. Prepare the tarte flambée dough:
Roll out the tarte flambée dough and spread evenly with the seasoned sour cream, leaving a border of 1-2 cm free all around.
3. Add topping:
Spread the bacon cubes and chopped onion evenly over the sour cream. Finally, sprinkle everything with grated cheese.
4. Roll and cut the dough:
Roll the dough up from the long side. Using a sharp knife, cut into 2-3 cm wide strips. Place these snails on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
