My Dad will eat anything with Stilton in it - but he goes CRAZY for these! A really nice take on the regular quiche. You could also make mini quiches for parties etc. Ingredients:
7 ounces shortcrust pastry |
2 1/2 ounces stilton cheese, crumbled |
3 spring onions, chopped finely (scallions) |
1 large free-range egg |
65 ml single cream |
1 teaspoon sunflower oil |
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder |
flour, for dusting |
salt & pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas 5. Divide the pastry into 2 and roll each out to make 15cm rounds on a floured surface. Line 2 12cm quiche tins or pie dishes and prick the bases with a fork.
2. Put on a baking tray and blind bake for 10 minutes (loosely scrunch up tin foil and place over pastry). Remove the foil, turn oven down to 175c & return to oven for 5 more minutes.
3. Gently fry spring onions for 2-3 minutes Place half in each tin. Sprinkle half of the Stilton into each tin. Whisk egg, cream, salt and pepper in a jug and pour over the Stilton.
4. Return to oven and resume cooking for a further 20 minutes or until quiche is set and lightly golden on the top.
5. Serve warm or cold with salad.
