Method

  1. Preheat the oven to fan 170C/ conventional 190C/gas 5. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan and cook the green vegetables and onions for 5 minutes, stirring until starting to soften. Tip the milk and flour into the pan and stir over the heat until it thickens to a smooth sauce. Cool for 5 minutes or so, stirring to stop a skin forming.
  2. Beat the eggs into the sauce and generously season. Pour into the pastry case and scatter with the goat's cheese and tomatoes.
  3. Bake for 40 minutes until the filling is set, turning golden. Cool for a few minutes before taking from the tin. Serve with a green salad.

    Really really delicious! Made it for dinner using veggies from the garden and everyone loved it so much they had seconds! I cheated and used the pre-made pastry so it was quick and easy too.

    Delicious! Used runner beans and swiss chard from a friend's garden, but I think you could use pretty much any veg. I made two and froze one. It defrosted and reheated really well.

    Lovely and such an original idea for a quiche filling. Didn't have a 24cm quiche tin, so used a 20cm deep sandwich tin. Also used low fat creme fraish instead of milk as I had a tub that needed to be used up.
