Quiche with chicken and mushrooms

Admin

Quiche is an open pie with a savory filling. This is a classic French recipe. Quiche Lauren got its name from the name of the province of Lorharginia, in which it was first cooked.

The base for the open pie is chopped puff pastry. Any food in your refrigerator can be used as a filling.

The most popular option is chicken and mushroom quiche. In conjunction with the cheese-cream filling, such a filling resembles julienne in taste and structure.

The number of products indicated in this recipe is calculated on a 26 cm mold.
