Puff Pastry Quiche



Here is a pretty easy recipe for a yummy, healthy quiche using puff pastry as the base.

The best part about this recipe is that you can use up whatever ingredients you have in your fridge.

To get started, you'll need:

Puff pastry (I used two sheets)
4 eggs
Cheese (I used cheddar)
Parmesan cheese
Rosemary (the leaves)

and then you can use whatever you like to see appear in your creation.  I used:

Ham (cut up in 1cm cubes)
Silverbeet (sliced)
Sliced mushrooms

Then...

Preheat your oven to 190 degrees celcius (fan forced).

Line the bottom of a rectangular cake tin with baking paper and arrange the puff pastry on top.  Just fold over an excess as it will taste great around the edges.  Then arrange the silverbeet, mushrooms and ham over the top of the pastry.

In the thermy, put the rosemary and cheeses and mill on speed 8 for about 15 seconds.  Remove half of the cheese mixture and put aside.

Add to the other half of the cheese the remaining ingredients and mix for 10 seconds on speed 5.

Pour over the puff pastry and arrange the rest of the cheese mixture on top.  Bake for about 20 minutes until the pastry is golden.

I served this with a baby spinach and cherry tomato salad dressed with some freshly squeezed lemon and balsamic glaze.  So good!
