Ingredients

For the dough:

Pâte brisée or puff pastry, enough to line your tray

For the egg mixture: 

6 eggs
200 g crème fraîche
200 g milk 
2 tbsp Nordic Shoyu or Mushroom Garum
Salt and pepper, to season

For Option 1 - Lorraine

200 g pancetta or bacon
4 onions, finely sliced

For Option 2 - Vegetarian

3 leeks, finely sliced
200 g spinach
150 g goat's cheese

For the salad:

200 g of mixed greens - i.e. lettuce, frisée, radicchio
4 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Nordic Shoyu or Mushroom Garum
1 tbsp  Wild Rose Vinegar
1 tsp mustard
2 tsp honey

Method

Prepare the quiche:

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). 
  • Pre-bake the Crust: Place the dough in a baking tray, add some weight (such as pie weights or dry beans), and pre-bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden. 

Prepare the filling: 

  • Option 1: Sauté the pancetta until nice and golden brown, and remove from pan. Add the sliced onions and slowly caramelize
  • Option 2: Slice and cook the leeks until browned, then add the spinach and sauté. Crumble the goat cheese and combine.

Prepare the final product:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the cream and eggs until smooth. Add the prepared filling ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 
  • Pour the filling mixture into the pre-baked pie crust. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until the quiche is lightly golden and set in the center. 
  • Allow the quiche to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. 

Prepare the salad:

  • Wash and dry the different leaves. Place in a salad bowl. 
  • In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, oil, Wild Rose Vinegar, Nordic Shoyu or Mushroom Garum, and honey. Season to taste.
  • Just before serving, toss the salad greens in the dressing.
  • Optionally, garnish with nuts, seeds, or cheese.
