Ingredients
250g ready made shortcrust pastry
1 bunch spring onions, sliced
15g butter
200g Crème Fraîche
150ml single cream
4 large free-range eggs
75g mature Cheddar cheese, grated
10 baby plum tomatoes, halved
Few sprigs thyme (optional)
Method
1
Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Roll out the pastry and use it to line a 23cm flan tin. Prick the base. Lay a sheet of baking paper on the pastry and weigh it down with rice. Bake for 10 minutes, remove the rice and paper and return to the oven for 5 minutes.
2
Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Cook the spring onions in the butter until they soften.
3
Beat the crème fraîche, cream and eggs. Stir in the cheese and spring onions and season. Pour into the tin.
4
Arrange the tomatoes in the quiche, cut side up. Bake for 25 minutes, then decorate with sprigs of thyme, if liked.
