Quiche

Crust Ingredients
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil or canola oil
  • 1/4 cup iced water
(a pinch of cayenne pepper or a small amount of Parmesan cheese adds great flavour)

Method
  1. Mix flour and salt with fork.
  2. Beat oil and water with whisk to thicken.
  3. Pour into flour and mix with fork.
  4. Press into 22cm pie crust tin (I prefer to roll mine out and lay in into the tin, using a knife to remove the excess)

Filling Ingredients (suggested)
  • 5 large eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 2 cups of........ Chopped Bacon/Cheese/Deli Meats/Mushrooms/Zucchini/Antipasto Mix etc etc

Method
  1. Gently whisk eggs and milk together,
  2. Stir in desired topping, (a favourite of ours is a mixture of gently sauteed onion, bacon and mushroom, (allowed to cool) this makes up about 1 ¾ cup the remaining ½ cup we fill with grated cheese.
  3. Add mixture to prepared crust and bake for 40 – 45 mins at 200 *C until golden and or a knife can be inserted and removed cleanly.
  4. Serve with your favourite salad.
