Leek And Goat’S Cheese Quiche
- 1 pastry ready-rolled
- 5 5/8 cups leeks sliced very thinly
- 1 3/4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons tarragon leaves chopped
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- grated nutmeg Freshly
- 4 eggs
- 7/8 cup goat's cheese half chopped, the rest sliced
- salt
- pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped almond roughly, or hazelnuts
- Preheat your oven to 200u0b0C/400u0b0F.
- Line your tin with baking parchment. Unroll the pastry and fit it into the tin.
- Line with more baking parchment, fill with baking beans and blind bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove the paper and beans and bake 5 minutes more to dry the base.
- Meanwhile, in a large non-stick frying pan, fry the leeks and tarragon in the butter until they have rendered their liquid and it has evaporated. Set aside to cool a little.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, nutmeg, salt & pepper. Whisk until well mixed, then stir in the chopped cheese.
- Carefully tip the leek mixture into the pastry, arrange the sliced cheese on top and scatter over the nuts, if using.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until golden and the filling is set.
- Serve warm, cold or at room temperature, at home or at the park.
