One of my standard quiche recipes, I made this as a side-dish to my parent's catered 50th wedding anniversary, and was quite chuffed when it became the focus of the meal. I love it when people ask me for the recipe!
1 blind-baked pie crust, completely cooled
2Tbsps (1oz/28gr) melted butter
2 to 3 scallions
1 leek
3 eggs
1 cup crème fraîche
pinch nutmeg
pinch nutmeg
4 to 5 oz chèvre cheese
½ tsp salt
1⁄4 tsp pepper
Optional: 1 Tbsp tarragon
Optional: 1 Tbsp tarragon
- Pre-heat oven to 400°F and blind-bake the pie crust. Allow it to cool completely before using to allow the crust to set.
- While crust is baking, fry leek in butter until soft; remove from pan. Fry scallions and set aside.
- Whisk together egg, crème fraiche, nutmeg, salt and pepper (and tarragon, if using).
- Spread cheese in bottom of pie shell. Sprinkle fried leeks on top.
- Pour egg mix into shell; sprinkle fried scallions on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until custard is set.
