Traditional French dish. I have been preparing it for several years, the recipe is brought out under the form of 24-25 cm. A versatile pie for breakfast, lunch and dinner! #pie
Ingredients: wheat flour, butter 82.5%, chicken egg (for dough), salt, bacon (brisket), favorite cheese, cream 20-30%, eggs (for pouring), nutmeg
Cooking method:
Grind cold butter with flour until crumbly. Add egg and salt, quickly knead the dough. We do not mix for a long time! Otherwise, the dough will be tough.
Dust a work surface with flour and roll out the dough to a thickness of about 5 mm. Transfer the dough to the form, carefully distribute, cut off all the excess and put the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Cut the bacon into small pieces, fry in a preheated pan for 5-7 minutes, you need to evaporate excess fat. Transfer to paper towels to remove excess fat and let cool slightly.
For pouring, combine eggs, nutmeg, spices to taste, shake, add cream, mix well again.
We take out the dough from the refrigerator and prick it with a fork, cover it with baking paper, pour out the load (beans, rice ...). Bake at 180 degrees for about 15-18 minutes. We remove the load.
We evenly distribute the filling: cheese and bacon, pour the filling on top. It should not reach the edge of the dough by about 5 mm; during baking, the filling increases slightly.
We bake our cake at 180 degrees for about 35-40 minutes until a beautiful ruddy color. Cool the finished quiche a little, then you can already remove it from the mold. Hot it can break. Cut and serve!
