About the bake
Creamy stilton and hearty broccoli make this quiche a fantastic lunchtime meal. This quiche is great with a light summer salad. We've cheated a little bit with this recipe as we've opted for a sheet of ready made puff pastry. It’s still a Broccoli & Stilton Quiche, it just has a different pastry base!
Method
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan, gas mark 6).
Step 2:
Roll out the dough onto a buttered ovenproof pie dish, and prick with a fork.
Step 3:
To prepare the broccoli, cut the head up leaving the florettes whole before boiling or steaming in lightly salted water for 10 minutes. Drain well.
Step 4:
Next, break up the cheese and spread evenly, along with the broccoli over the pastry.
Step 5:
Beat the eggs, creme fraiche and milk together in a bowl, season well with salt and pepper and pour over broccoli and cheese.
Step 6:
Bake in hot oven for 20/25 minutes or until the pastry has turn golden.
