Description

Based on this recipe, you can substitute ingredients to suit your taste: quiche with vegetables (especially with leeks) or with salmon. Instead of Emmental cheese, you can use Gruyère. If you can't find a suitable cheese, you can omit this ingredient. You can use shortcrust pastry instead of puff pastry. Serving suggestion: you can serve the quiche with a green salad. Mini-quiches can also be made and served as appetizers. Lardons are bacon cut in a special way, very common in France. In slang, lardon also means 'child.'

Ingredients

Bacon - 7.1 oz
Puff Pastry - 10.6 oz
Chicken Egg - 4 pieces
Sour Cream - 7.1 oz
Salt - a pinch
Ground Black Pepper - a pinch
Grated Chocolate - 3.5 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Dust the baking pan with flour. Place the dough in the pan, ensuring it fits snugly against the sides and bottom. Use a knife to trim any excess dough that extends beyond the edge of the pan.

Step 2

Prick the dough several times at the bottom of the baking dish. Start preheating the oven to 410°F (thermostat 7). In a food processor or bowl, combine the eggs, sour cream, grated cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix with a mixer.

Step 3

In a skillet, fry the diced bacon and set it aside to cool. Then, arrange the fried pieces at the bottom of the crust. Pour the mixture from the blender up to the halfway mark of the edges of the dish.

Step 4

Place in the oven for 30 minutes. The top of the quiche should turn golden brown. The filling should have a consistency similar to that of an omelette. The cheese will cause the quiche to rise slightly. Serve it cold, warm, or hot.
