Smoked Salmon& Goat Cheese Quiche

Ingredients

1/2 recipe basic pie crust dough see recipe
120 gr parmesan cheese
95 gr smoked salmon
3 green onions
8 eggs
230 ml cream cheese softened
30 gr goat cheese
350 ml evaporated milk
1 gr pepper
4 gr basil

Instructions

Line a 25 cm pie plate with the pie pastry, trimming and fluting the edge. Bake at 180ºC or 5 minutes or until partially baked.

Sprinkle with half the Parmesan cheese. Layer with the salmon and green onions.

Beat the eggs, cream cheese and goat cheese in a mixer bowl until smooth. Add the evaporated milk and pepper, beating well.

Pour over the layers. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese and the basil.

Bake at 180ºC or 1 hour or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Authors Note: Our chef, Brant, and I love this sinfully rich quiche. We often make it as a lunch special, but it is also great when prepared as mini-quiches for hors d'oeuvre.
