Shortcrust pastry
Mix the flour, salt and sugar in a bowl. Add the butter and rub together using your hands to form an even, crumbly mixture. Pour in the water and mix quickly to form a soft dough; do not knead.

Transfer the cheese mixture to the prepared tart tins. -
Cheese mixture
Using the whisk on a hand mixer, whisk the cheese, crème fraîche and eggs in a bowl until the mixture becomes lighter in colour. Stir in the milk, dates and onions, season. -
To bake
