Roll out the dough thinly and spread it on a round cake springform pan (28 cm), leaving a border of about 2-3 cm on the sides. Spread the vegetable-cheese mixture evenly on it and press it well until smooth. Bake the cake in the heated oven at 185 °C for about ten minutes, then pour the royal mixed with whipped cream, milk, eggs and seasoned with salt, pepper and nutmeg evenly over it and bake for another 20 minutes.
