Recipe - Smoked salmon and camembert quiche


Ingredients
  • Short crust pastry
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) pouring cream
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • 100g sliced smoked salmon
  • 100g chilled camembert, thinly sliced
  • Mixed salad leaves, to serve

Method
  1. Roll out the pastry between 2 sheets of non-stick baking paper to a 28cm disc. Line a 22cm (base measurement) fluted tart tin, with removable base, with the pastry and trim any excess. Use a fork to lightly prick the base all over.
  2. Preheat oven to 190°C. Place the tart tin on a baking tray. Cover the pastry base with baking paper and fill with pastry weights or rice. Bake in oven for 15 minutes. Remove the paper and pastry weights or rice. Bake for a further 8 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 180°C.
  3. Whisk together the cream, eggs and dill in a large jug. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Arrange the smoked salmon and camembert evenly over the base of the quiche. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the quiche shell. Bake in oven for 35-40 minutes or until the filling is golden and just set in the centre. (To freeze, see note.)
  5. Cut the quiche into wedges and serve with mixed salad leaves.
