Ingredients
  

Mushroom Filling

  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 pound Cremini Mushrooms halved and sliced
  • 2 large Leeks trimmed and thinly sliced (see notes)
  • ½ teaspoon Salt

Cheese Filling

  • 150 grams Boursin Cheese (Garlic and Fine Herbs)
  • ½ cup Goat Cheese (plain or flavored)
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon Juice from 1 lemon

Crust Dough

  • cup All-Purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Cold Butter
  • ¼ cup Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar or White Vinegar
  • cup Cold Water

Toppings

  • 1 large Egg for egg wash
  • 1 tablespoon Everything Bagel Seasoning or other seeds like poppy and sesame
  • 2 tablespoon Fresh Parsley chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400F with a rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Start by making the Crust Dough

  • Mix together the flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender or with clean hands, until having a fine crumb mixture.
  • Make a well in the center of the flour butter mixture. Place the sour cream, water and vinegar in the center. Mix the wet ingredients together and then bring in the flour mixture to the center and folding until just combined. Do not over mix to prevent a tough dough.
  • Bring the dough together with your hands to form a small disk. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator while you make the filling.

Make the Mushroom filling

  • Place a large frying on medium-high heat. Melt the 2 tablespoon of butter with olive oil in the pan. Add the sliced leek and mushrooms with the salt and cook until the mushrooms have released their liquids and they have mostly evaporated.

Make the Cheese Filling

  • Stir together the Boursin and the goat cheese with a spoon or rubber spatula until smooth. Add the juice of a lemon (or 2 tbsp) into the cheese and mix it in until well incorporated. Set aside.

Assemble the Galette

  • Remove the dough from the plastic wrap and plate it on a floured surface. Roll it out into a circle of 14 to 15 inches in diameter. It helps to flip over the dough and rotating it in quarter turns, while lightly flouring your surface, in order to get an even circle.
  • Carefully transfer the rolled dough to the lined baking tray, lining up the center of the dough with the center of the baking tray. The sides of the dough might go over the tray, but they will be folded in later.
  • Spread the cheese filling evenly in the center of the dough, leaving a 3 inch border of dough all around.
  • Place the mushroom filling on top of the cheese, making sure to stay on the same surface area as the cheese filling.
  • Fold over a 4-inch piece of the border dough over the filling. Continue doing so, a section at a time, overlapping on the last section, until all sides are folded in.
  • Mix together the egg with a tablespoon of water or milk to make an egg wash. Brush some of the egg wash on the crust. Sprinkle the crust with the Everything Bagel Seasoning.
  • Bake the galette in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn the tray around and keep baking for another 10 minutes, or until the dough golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest 5-10 minutes before cutting into it.

Notes

About Leeks: Because leeks are grown in the ground, when they grow, each laying traps in dirt or sand. This is why it is important to check them for dirt before slicing. 
Picking out leeks at the grocery store: We generally only use the white portion of the leek for recipes. Pick out leeks with larger white sections so that you have more leek to use in the recipe. 
Cleaning out the leeks: Cut off the root end tip and the green top section, leaving only the useable section of the leek. Cut the leek down the middle, opening up all of its layers. Flip thought the layers like a book, to check for hidden dirt. Rinse they off and dry before slicing them thin for this recipe.
