Self Crusting Quiche

This is a recipe that Christine gave me about 10 years ago, and I've used it sooooo many times.... Thanks Christine! x
 
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 50g salted butter
- 1/2c self raising flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
Suggested fillings:
- Bunch kale (approx 3 big leaves?) chopped finely
- 1/2 onion
- Approx 100g feta
- 2-3 tomatoes thinly sliced (for the top)
- Mixed herbs

You could use any fillings, like bacon, silverbeet, carrot, kumara, cauliflour, brocolli, corn... Try using up the veggies in your fridge.

Method:
Preheat an oven to 175degrees.
Meanwhile melt the butter. Do not let it bubble or burn. Then take off the heat and add in the whisked eggs. Then add the flour to form a nice paste. Add the milk and continue to mix.
Line a dish with baking paper (15 x 25cm dish works well).
Pour mixture into the dish. Then add your chosen fillings and pat down so that the egg mixture covers the fillings.
Place slices of tomato on the top, and sprinkle with mixed herbs.
Cook for 45 min. Take out the oven and leave to set for about 15 min.

  1. Thanks Jo for this recipe. I have made it 3 times now and it works out perfectly each time. I normally cant get my husband or 2 year old son to eat Kale, but they love this quiche. (i think they think its spinach). Its really filling and nutritious.
