Best Of British Easy Cheese Quiche
Welcome to my Best of British Cheese Quiche. This is my time to share with you the wonderful food I grew up on and to also embrace my British heritage.
Servings: 8
Calories: 327kcal
Ingredients
- Spiralizer
- Pastry:
- 225 g Plain Flour
- 100 g Butter
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
- Salt & Pepper
- 1 Tbsp Parsley
- 1 Tsp Mustard
- Water
- Filling:
- 2 Large Eggs
- 250 ml Whole Milk
- 150 g Cheddar Cheese
- 1 Large Onion
- 150 g Cherry Tomatoes
- 1 Tsp Oregano
Instructions
- First make your pastry. In a mixing bowl add the butter, flour and seasoning and mix well. Rub the fat into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the olive oil. Then add a little water at a time as you combine the mixture to form your dough. I like to have my pastry a little dry because then it tastes better when it is cooked.
- Layer the bottom of a quiche dish with your pastry.
- Using your spiralizer shred the onions into spiralized shapes and layer them in the bottom of your quiche dish.
- Add 90% of the cheese (grated) on top of the onion.
- In a bowl mix together the milk and egg and pour over the cheese and onion.
- Using your spiralizer thinly slice the tomatoes and place them on top. Sprinkle on the top the last of the cheese and the oregano.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes on a 180c heat or until the top looks like a cooked omelette.
- Leave to rest for 5 minutes and then serve!
Notes
Because I live in Portugal and because I love olive oil I add a little olive oil to the pastry to make it taste better and it makes it taste amazing. You can of course leave this out and add a little bit more water instead.
