Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use to line a deep 23cm fluted flan tin. Line with baking paper and fill with baking beans. Bake blind for 15 mins.
  2. Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan, then gently fry the onions, covered, for about 30 mins until completely softened, but still pale in colour.
  3. Beat the eggs and cream together in a bowl, then add the cheese and some seasoning. Stir in the onions, then spoon the mixture into the flan case. Bake for 25-30 mins until lightly set and browned.

    Gorgeous! Creamy and tender and so beautiful with a golden brown top! Was lovely the next day too and I'll remember to make it for a picnic when summer comes around again! My veggie friends loved it when I made individual versions for them as a dinner party main course - gratifyingly easy!

    Made a double batch, but using shop bought pastry. I really liked this dish, husband thought it was a bit sweet, but nothing left on guests plates. So guess it was a hit. I will be making it again, may even try a little blue cheese.

    Made it today for lunch and it went down a treat! I added extra oregano and nutmeg plus extra Parmesan. Will be making this again.
