Quiche
My favorite pies are always the savory type cos I get to have more than one slice without any guilt unlike the sweet pies, come to think of it, I do the same with the sweet pies.
Oh bother, I love pies!
This pie makes an excellent lunch menu which I love.
Please click here for the short crust recipe.
Blind bake the crust for 15 min in 180 deg Celsius oven.
For the filling - this is an approximate only depending on the size of your pastry. Mine is a 9in pie tray.
1 onion chopped fine
2 garlic pips chopped fine
9 button mushroom - sliced
1 leek - cleaned and cut
6 cherry tomato - diced
1 tsp of parsley
150g of thinly sliced chicken fillet
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
salt and pepper to taste
pinch of mix dry herbs
chopped spring onion
Start with heating a non stick pan over a medium heat. Saute the onion and garlic till golden brown. Add the chicken and fry till cooked. In goes the mushroom and the rest of the ingredients, except the tomatoes. Cook till the chicken appear soft. Remove from the heat and scatter it evenly over the crust.
In another bowl, beat the milk, eggs and the rest of the ingredients.
Pour the liquid into the cooked filling and mix well.
Arrange the tomatoes around with a sprinkle of chopped coriander and bake for about 40min or until filling appear set.
Serve warm.
