    Asparagus Quiche

    Pastry: 1 cup flour and a pinch of salt
    50g butter rubbed in
    Cold water to mix

    Filling: 2 cups grated cheese (I use 1 c parmesan when going very low fat)
    Tin of Asparagus - drained
    3 eggs
    1 cup skimmed milk
    1 tspn salt
    1 tspn mustard

    Line a flan tin with pastry. Sprinkle grated cheese over.Cover with asparagus. Blend rest of ingredients, pour over filling. Bake at 200c for 20 minutes - or until puffed up and slightly brown on the top.

    You can substitute asparagus for mushrooms if you like. When I make the pastry I do it in the whizz, but if you're doing it by hand just add a little water at a time until it forms a ball - once I put it in the quiche dish I pop it into the fridge to let it rest while I get the other stuff ready.

  • I tried this one the other day and the whole family loved it - I think its going to be a regular. Do use the chunky mango chutney though. Enjoy!
